Partnership Journey

Your participation in the recent vote helped bring our shared vision to life, and we are truly grateful.       

We’re excited about the opportunities this merger will bring for our members, employees, and communities. Over the coming months, we’ll share updates as we work through the gradual integration process. 

For now, it’s business as usual and we remain committed to serving you and our community.

Through a comprehensive and thorough due diligence process we considered many options, including analyzing and assessing all options within the current credit union landscape.  However, the Management and Board of Directors unanimously concluded that the Prosperity model, which is highly committed to rural, small-town Saskatchewan, was the best fit for the future of our organization.

As we work through the merger with Prosperity Credit Union, we will be assessing all areas of our business. Over time, we will be able to leverage our size and combined strength to provide new solutions and positive improvements to the products, services, pricing, and technology we offer today.

Under the terms of the agreed upon merger agreement, Foam Lake will have two representatives on the Prosperity Board of Directors for the first year.  These will rotate on a 3 year basis within the regions of Prosperity Credit Union.

The CEO will be Blair Wingert, the existing CEO from Prosperity Credit Union.  Foam Lake Credit Union’s current CEO, Kent McMann will remain in a leadership role to assist and support in the transition to the new organization.

Supporting employment in all our communities is a key priority for Prosperity Credit Union. We operate with a decentralized leadership and administrative model with teams spread out between service locations and through remote work arrangements. In today’s world, technical advancements have made remote workplace models very attractive and efficient, and our intent is to continue to operate decentralized going forward.

All current Foam Lake Credit Union employees will remain on staff with the new organization. 

Prosperity Credit Union is committed to giving back to each of the communities they serve.  In addition to monetary assistance, employees are encouraged to volunteer and assist with local groups and organizations, as well as providing support with any new initiatives. This is a vital component of the cooperative principles which we will remain true as we move forward. Profit sharing & patronage programs will be evaluated and may be redesigned to align with what is important to the member.
