Vice Chairman Hood Honors John Milazzo, President & CEO of Campus FCU
February 11, 2009, Alexandria, VA –– National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) Vice Chairman Rodney E. Hood honored the president and CEO of Campus Federal Credit Union, with the Vice Chairman’s Award for Distinguished Service for his leadership of the Blueprint 2020 Initiative Task Force. Exemplifying dedication to the credit union mission of “People Helping People,” Mr. Milazzo has helped bring to light the significant benefits of recruiting, training, and retaining individuals for careers in the credit union industry.
The Task Force found conclusive evidence suggesting opportunities exist for credit unions to increase student membership, employment and participation in their organizations. Nearly all the options have one common thread running through them…a partnership between credit unions and institutions of secondary and/or post-secondary learning. If credit unions want to be successful in attracting the attention of young people, they would be well advised to network with career services counselors of local high schools, colleges and universities.
Vice Chairman Hood thanked Mr. Milazzo for his commitment and enthusiasm to the Blueprint 2020 Initiative while also serving as the Chairman of the National Association of Federal Credit Unions (NAFCU)
“I have always believed that if you want something done in a timely manner, give it to a busy person.” Hood said “The Task Force findings are encouraging credit unions to look toward the future and to pursue human capital. This, coupled with John’s years of service, will leave a lasting impact on the credit union industry.”
The National Credit Union Administration is the independent federal agency that regulates, charters and supervises federal credit unions. NCUA, with the backing of the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, operates and manages the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, insuring the deposits of more than 89 million account holders in all federal credit unions and the overwhelming majority of state-chartered credit unions.
