Members of Self Reliance Financial Federal Credit Union are called upon to elect individuals to serve on the Credit Union’s Board of Directors. These elections take place at the Credit Union’s Annual Meeting. Members interested in serving on the Board of Directors of the Credit Union are asked complete the “Qualifications and Statement of Willingness to Serve Form” and to provide a brief statement of why they want to become a Board of Director.
The By-laws of Self Reliance Financial Federal Credit Union govern elections to the Board of Directors. The process provides two ways to become a candidate:
- Candidates for the Board of Directors may be recruited by the Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee has submitted its report, nominating Mark Bach, Andrij Juzeniw, and Askold Sandursky, to fill the Board positions available for a three-year term.
- Candidates can also be nominated by the membership. You can become a candidate by signing and submitting the Qualifications Statement and the enclosed supporting materials, along with a petition signed by at least 316 current members of the Credit Union (316 equals 1% of the membership as of December 31, 2025). Petitions, Qualification Statements, and all supporting materials from members nominated by petition must be submitted no later than April 22, 2026, at 5:00 PM.
As outlined in the Credit Union By-laws, if the Nominating Committee puts forward the same number of candidates as there are open positions and no additional nominations are submitted by petition, the election is not conducted by ballot.

Why Should You Participate?
Attending an Annual Meeting is one of the most engaging things you can do as a member and it is one of the reasons how we differ from banks.
Why?
- We’re member-owned: You are more than a member, you are part owner. We are owned and controlled by our members who use our services. A volunteer Board of Directors is elected by you, our members, to manage our credit union.
- We’re not-for-profit: We operate to promote the well-being of our members. Profits made by credit unions are returned back to members in the form of reduced fees, higher savings rates and lower loan rates.
- We’re involved in our community: We provide financial education and outreach to consumers, provide sponsorship and donations to community organizations, participate in events, and so much more. We’re designed to help our members.
