Universities of Wisconsin announce recipient of business partnership award

MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) – The Universities of Wisconsin announced the winner of its 2024 Regents Business Partnership Award.

UW officials presented UW Credit Union with the award Friday at UW-Whitewater.

The universities referenced UW Credit Union’s long history with the university helping students understand finances.

“The partnership between UW Credit Union and UW-Whitewater encapsulates what the Regents Business Partnership Award is all about — these two entities are dedicated to student success and improving the lives of those in the community,” Universities of Wisconsin President Jay Rothman said. “From financial literacy training to participating in greater service projects, UW Credit Union and UW-Whitewater make our state a better place.”

UW Credit Union opened its first branch on the UW-Whitewater campus in 1982. Last year, UWW and the credit union worked together to offer financial literacy education sessions on campus.

UWCU has also been a longtime donor toward UW fundraisers, officials said.
