Visions Federal Credit Union’s Director of Government Affairs Patricia Shermot received NAFCU’s 2019 Paul Revere Award at the association’s annual Congressional Caucus. The Paul Revere Award recognizes a NAFCU-member credit union advocate who goes to great lengths in his or her grassroots and political efforts.
“Patricia’s advocacy has been invaluable to the credit union industry and its 118 million members, and has helped ensure credit unions continue to have a strong voice in Washington,” said NAFCU President and CEO Dan Berger. “It is with my great pleasure to honor Patricia with the 2019 Paul Revere Award for her commitment to our industry’s cooperative, not-for-profit mission.”
“It is an honor to be recognized with NAFCU’s Paul Revere Award,” said Shermot. “Credit unions provide tremendous value to their members and local communities, and I am proud to advocate on our industry’s behalf. With the ongoing support of our President/CEO and leadership team, I look forward to continuing to be a strong, reliable grassroots advocate.”
