Community Calendar
2009 Calendar Coming soon!
Lakeland Credit Union values the role emerging artists play in ensuring our communities continue to be vital and creative places to live. To foster education and encourage youth in positive and creative activities, we are excited to present our second annual ‘Lakeland Community Calendar’. The calendar features the artwork of 14 local elementary students. Participating schools received a $200 donation for art supplies for the benefit of our youth.
Lakeland Credit Union has always been committed to enhancing the lives of our members and our community. We are a member-owned credit union serving the Lakeland since 1940. Our profits are returned to our members and community. Each year, Lakeland Credit Union donates thousands of dollars in funding and sponsoring community events, non-profit organizations and community initiatives.

Care Wear
The staff at Lakeland Credit Union wear ‘Care Wear’ on Fridays
to raise money for local, non-profit organizations in the Lakeland.
Within a short year, staff have raised thousands of dollars for local groups including the Bonnyville Palliative Care Unit, Dr. Margaret Savage Crisis Centre, MADD of Cold Lake, Bonnyville Boys and Girls Club, The Jericho Youth Society, and the Bonnyville & District SPCA.
Care Wear was initiated so that LCU staff could participate in corporate citizenship and give back to non-profit organizations over the course of the year. Each Friday, staff pays $2 to wear a black shirt with the Care Wear and LCU logos to identify the fundraising endeavor.
