Become A Volunteer

Help Shape The Future Of Your Credit Union

As a member-owned financial cooperative, our credit union depends on the leadership, insight, and dedication of volunteers. Since the credit union movement began more than a century ago, volunteers have played a vital role in helping credit unions remain focused on serving members rather than generating profits for shareholders. Serving on our Board of Directors or a committee is a meaningful way to help shape the future of your credit union, represent fellow members, and ensure we continue serving our community’s best interests for generations to come.

Jersey Shore is looking for members who want to make a positive impact by serving on our Board of Directors or one of our various committees. Share your skills, help guide the credit union’s future, and support the members and communities we serve. Join us and get involved today!

Board Of Directors

The Board of Directors provides strategic direction and oversight for the credit union, ensuring it operates in the best interests of its members while maintaining financial strength and stability. Board members establish policies, monitor performance, and help guide the organization’s long-term growth and success. Board Members are elected at our Annual Meeting each year. 

Board Members are expected to participate in at least one committee. You must be willing to commit to the philosophy of the organization, keeping in mind that these are unpaid, volunteer positions giving you the opportunity to work with Executive Management,  other Board Members, and staff to foster the development of Jersey Shore Federal Credit Union.

Social Action

This committee organizes different types of fundraisers to help those in need in the communities we serve. The committee meets every quarter.

Policy Review

Members of the Policy Review Committee review and recommend changes to our credit union policies. Changes are discussed at virtual meetings usually held once a month

Supervisory Committee

Our supervisory committee is primarily responsible for safeguarding members’ assets by reviewing annual audits and conducting internal control audits.  The committee meets as needed.

Risk Management

This committee deals with identifying and mitigating risk associated with the operations and the system infrastructure of the credit union. This committee meets quarterly.

Qualifications

If you are interested in serving on our Board or one of our committees, you will need to meet at least the following criteria:
