VETERANS MEMORIAL CREDIT UNION (VMCU) is an integrated services-to-veterans organization that is primarily focused on assisting its members to achieve and sustain financial success.
VMCU is a member-owned and member-governed nonprofit corporation.
VMCU gives its member’s unprecedented opportunities to improve their lives by leveraging one or more online social network implementations and many affiliate marketing programs, potentially impacting every aspect of our member's lives through job creation, personal and family advocacy, health awareness, education, consumer loyalty programs, self-banking services, new mobile payment technologies, prepaid legal services, entrepreneurial opportunities, and business consultancy. VMCU is a lender to members, of course, as well as a provider of a wide range of benefits unique to credit union membership.
VMCU is adopting a revolutionary approach to common banking and payment practices by incorporating the world’s first banking platform that is truly personal and social. It is the cutting edge of technology and VMCU is the first financial institution to integrate a member's mobile phone, social networking, loyalty, and social entrepreneurship into a banking and payment platform:
The Rewards Division of VMCU manages the member-consumer loyalty program. VMCU is able to create multi-channel venues for all of our members to generate incremental income and enjoy real benefits of an enhanced cash back loyalty program. Every member is assigned an in-house advocate who, among other services, educates our members on how to turn their daily expenditures into cash-back savings through self-banking, new mobile payment technologies, and consumer loyalty.
The Special Works (transformational economy) Division of VMCU oversees new energy (VMEnergy Union) and infrastructural projects and manages entrepreneurial opportuniites, job creation, and business consultancy.
The DeeperAssets Division documents the chain-of-custody of deeper assets occurring within the activities of VMCU and monetizes the deeper assets for use within VMCU and the local and global economies (MERCEDEX).
The Outsourcing Division manages member use of services that are obtained external to VMCU, such as Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc. and other programs that require our members to enroll individually to participate in a group benefit.
The New Technologies Division deploys throughout the membership the self-banking and mobile payment methods of using a credit union.
The VMCU Credit Union Consultancy Division is tasked with propogating the VMCU primary focus by recruiting supportive member-businesses and industries throughout the United States, Canada, and the world.
The VMCU Incubators, Parks, and Cities Development Division implements and oversees the VMCU Demonstration Park and Healing Gardens Project.

A little historical background
Before I get into the many good reasons why I have started the project to create a credit union for veterans, permit me to reveal something about myself. Some questions, at least, need not go unanswered.
I have been a patient of a VA facility just once. In 1986 I self-admitted and ever since have been questing for justice, so to speak, on a number of issues pertaining to my health and social dilemmas where my military service is concerned. It took nearly 28 years for me to prevail with the VA, but when the bureaucracy finally got around to investigating some parts of my claim, all my telling of the facts was corroborated by their findings, right down to the names of girlfriends of my guys killed in Vietnam, their hometowns and names of siblings and parents, not to mention the exact time and date of a particularly horrific incident in which I sustained my now proved injuries. I was granted a service-connected disability in "less than a federal month," much to the delight and amazement of my county-employee vet advocate, the individual who packaged my claim.
