NAME OF FEATURE | THE GLEANER | FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 2025 12 DURING CREDIT Union Week 2025, the JPS & Partners Co-operative Credit Union Limited family proudly joined Credit Unions across Jamaica and around the globe in celebrating the unique spirit of the cooperative movement. This year’s global theme, ‘Cooperation for a Prosperous World’, reflected the essence of unity and mutual support that defines credit unions everywhere, putting people before profit and prosperity within everyone’s reach. The week began with our participation in the National Church Service on Sunday, October 12, 2025, where representatives of our credit union joined other cooperators in thanksgiving and prayer, acknowledging God’s blessings over our years of service to members and communities across Jamaica. In keeping with our strong community focus, we made donations to partner schools across the island, reinforcing our long-standing commitment to education and youth empowerment. These visits allowed our team to interact with students and educators, reminding them that our credit union continues to be their financial partner for life. A highlight of the week was our CREDIT UNION WEEK IN REVIEW FEATURE Students from The Queen’s School for Girls in St Andrew smile proudly as they receive their donation from Chad La Ronde (left), general manager, JPS & Partners Credit Union, during Credit Union Week.
