About the blog

It's a simple math problem. The average age of a credit union member is 10 years older than the average age of a North American. If credit unions do not reverse the trend and attract the next generation of credit union members, the future doesn't look so bright.

The Why Gen Y Blog has a simple mission: to equip credit union executives and marketers with relevant information that will help them succeed in attracting and retaining new Generation Y members.

Next Why Gen Y Live: Jonathan Gowins

We've returrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrned!

And we have a face melting treat for you guys: This week's show features Jonathan Gowins, from Addison Avenue Federal Credit Union, and he's going to talk with us about their launch of the first credit union augmented reality app!

Not familiar with augmented reality? Here's a demo of how it works in the real world!

Instead of subway systems, though, this app shows the locations of nearby ATMs and branches. Pretty baller, eh?

Its going to be an awesome augmented reality good time!
