Letter from the CEO and Board Chairman

The year 2021 is now in the books, and what a fantastic year it was from start to finish! Day Air remains true to its mission of “enhancing members’ financial well-being” as we strive to offer products and services that fit the diverse needs of our members. Our growth rates in critical areas continue to be strong, but we remain humble and hungry, focusing on our most important asset, our members. It is an honor to serve Day Air members and assist them in making important financial decisions that will impact their lives now and in the future.

In 2021, Day Air saw tremendous growth in several key areas. We lent $217 million in consumer, commercial, and real estate loans, $66 million of which was loaned to local businesses. Total deposits surged by more than 14% to over $513 million. Finally, Day Air secured its position as the largest financial institution headquartered in Montgomery County, with more than $611 million in total assets.

In addition to our outstanding financial performance in 2021, Day Air also completed numerous projects and initiatives to provide members with a better banking experience. A few of the many initiatives celebrated are highlighted below:

  • The first pitch was thrown at Day Air Ballpark, allowing members to enjoy professional baseball in Dayton, Ohio.
  • Day Air launched an upgraded website, mobile banking, and online banking platform.
  • Day Air helped more first-time homebuyers than ever, providing more than $131 million in first mortgages.
  • Day Air launched a new Cashback Checking Product, offering members up to $15 cashback on debit card purchases each month.
  • Day Air announced that members received more than $7,229,369 in direct financial benefit in 2020, a number that will surely increase in 2021.
  • Day Air was listed as a Dayton Business Journal ‘Best Place to Work’, ‘Top 100 Company’, and ‘Fast 50 Company’.
  • Day Air provided more than $11.5 million in PPP loans to 337 local businesses.

Loyal members are vitally important to our success, and we must deliver exceptional service during every interaction, be it face to face, digitally, or through social networking. This year Day Air’s Net Promoter Score reached an all-time high of 81.76%, far above industry norms and a testament to our commitment to provide members with unparalleled service.

We wish to express our gratitude to our members for allowing us to provide them with a better banking experience for 77 years. We sincerely appreciate our Board of Directors for their support and guidance and our associates for their diligence ensuring we remain one of the top-performing credit unions in the country while always looking out for our members’ best interest.

– William Burke, President, and CEO

In the community

Day Air Credit Union is committed to giving back to the communities where we live and work. Our contributions are far-reaching, and we promote involvement by supporting activities and nonprofit organizations utilizing Financial Education, Community Involvement, Community Economic Development, and Scholarships. Our goal is to make a difference and strengthen Dayton communities through these efforts.

Day Air associates support nonprofit organizations by volunteering their time. Our goal is to have a significant Day Air presence at events to demonstrate Day Air’s investment in our communities. In 2021, associates participated in numerous events and volunteered thousands of hours of personal time to participate in community events. Associates are also encouraged to make monetary donations to organizations they are passionate about.

Day Air strongly supports local schools and economic development groups in the Miami Valley. This year, we helped many organizations and causes, including Rebuilding the Arts, Hannah’s Treasure Chest, Crayons for Classrooms, the Dayton Foodbank, the Alzheimer’s Association, and much more.

 In addition to active community involvement efforts and donating to causes that build up the community, Day Air provided four scholarships for higher education to area high school and college students.
