LENEXA, Kan.–CommunityAmerica Credit Union said it has paid a bonus dividend of $8 million to its members, or an average of nearly $100 to every member household.
The latest bonus to members is $1 million more than the prior year’s payout, and marks the fifth straight year the credit union has returned at least $5 million to its members and the 21st straight year it issued a dividend.
"As CommunityAmerica continues to experience local success, so do our members," CommunityAmerica CEO Lisa Ginter in a statement. "Profit Payout Day is a favorite among our employees company-wide because it's a chance to share what really makes CommunityAmerica different from other financial institutions, locally and nationally."
The $2.3-billion CommunityAmerica said the payout for each member is based on how much business they do at the CU.
