  Mrs. MIMI WALTERS of California. Mr. Speaker, today I wish to 
recognize NuVision Federal Credit Union, a financial institution based 
in Orange County, California, for 80 years of outstanding service to 
their members and for their organization's philanthropic support of the 
communities in which they operate. I would also like to recognize Roger 
Ballard, who has provided exemplary leadership as Chief Executive 
Officer of NuVision Federal Credit Union since 2004.
  NuVision Federal Credit Union is one of Southern California's leading 
credit unions with over $1.3 billion in assets and 87,000 members. 
Headquartered in Huntington Beach, California, NuVision Federal Credit 
Union was founded in 1935 to serve employees of Douglas Aircraft 
Company. Additions to the NuVision family have resulted in a diverse 
group of sponsor companies in their field of membership in industries 
including aerospace, utilities, municipal, retail, automotive, housing, 
engineering, and healthcare. NuVision continues to serve aerospace 
employees from Boeing, employees of Sempra Energy/The Gas Company, and 
employees of Tesoro.
  NuVision Federal Credit Union has been very active in giving back to 
the communities they serve. In fact, NuVision Federal Credit Union 
employees and members have donated over $75,000 since 2010 to support 
the Children's Hospitals of Orange County and Los Angeles, and the 
Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The credit union also participates in 
numerous philanthropic activities every year such as adopting military 
families for the holidays, sponsoring toy drives in their branches for 
Toys for Tots, providing backpacks and school supplies for 
underprivileged children, and raising money for the victims of natural 
disasters.
  As a not-for-profit financial cooperative, NuVision remains proudly 
owned by the members it serves. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the members 
and employees of NuVision Federal Credit Union for their strong history 
of success in the community, and I wish them the best in their future 
endeavors.
