Tony Boutelle’s Post

Fabulous time last week at Origence’s Lending Tech Live conference in San Diego celebrating 30 years! From our opening reception at Petco Park to informative and inspiring general sessions to breakout sessions to our spectacular birthday bash at Broadway Pier…it was great networking with our 500+ attendees. Thank you to all our credit unions for your partnership and support over the years. It was great to spend time with current and former Origence Board members. Thank you for your vision and guidance over the past 30 years. Pictured: Stan Hollen, Tony Boutelle, Erin Mendez, Patsy Van Ouwerkerk, Dykstra Diana, Henry Wirz, Bill Cheney, John Merlo, Brett Martinez, Sterling Nielsen, Matthew Davidson, CPA, Nader Moghaddam. I was also honored to present a $132,250 check along with Diana Dykstra and next year’s Wine Auction co-chair, Bill Cheney, to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals representing proceeds from our ’30 Years of Impact’ campaign. Thank you to all who gave so generously to help the kids! See everyone next year June 16-18 in Nashville!

Close to $18,000 has been raised for the kids! We appreciate all those who have supported Origence’s 30 Years of Impact campaign! If you would like to join us in supporting the children at your local Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, please visit https://lnkd.in/g99HYBBZ and help us reach our goal of $30,000. Together, let’s make a difference! #30YearsOfImpact #CU4Kids #CMNHospitals

Origence was honored to be the Title Sponsor of Friday’s CU4Kids Wine Auction. The credit union community, through their immense generosity, raised a record $1.85 million to benefit the 11 Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals in California and Nevada. Thank you Ana Fonseca and Mark Meyer, our amazing co-chairs, for your leadership and dedication. Melody, you touched our hearts and reminded us why we do what we do. Thank you for sharing your inspiring story and your beautiful voice. Cheers to all who participated and contributed to this successful event. You are making a difference in the lives of many children and families, and I am proud to be part of this amazing community.

Excited to be one of the first to own a Tesla tri-motor CyberBeast! It’s definitely not like anything else on the road…all four wheels turn, and it is 0-60 in 2.5 seconds! I call it the Batmobile. 😊   Origence will have a Cybertruck at our booth next week at GAC. Stop by and take a look at booth #632. Plus, we’ll be happy to speak with you about our partnership with Tesla and how you can capture more indirect loans and expand your lending portfolio.   #Origence #Cybertruck #Tesla #GAC

Had the privilege of attending Filene Research Institute's big.bright.minds conference at the beginning of the month. Mark Meyer,congratulations to you and your team for exemplifying thought-provoking research and innovation for the betterment of credit unions and consumers. You do bring together the biggest and brightest! Thank you for providing me the opportunity to present on how top of funnel is changing for credit unions where the loan is started. On that front, I am excited to share that Origence has partnered with Tesla to offer credit union financing to EV buyers through the Tesla website. As a CUSO that is owned by credit unions, Origence’s Board is focused on helping credit unions stay relevant in this ever-changing financial environment.  https://lnkd.in/gHYWPMcs

Congratulations Credit Unions for Kids on being awarded the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals’ Founders Award! I am in awe of America’s credit unions collectively raising over $200 million since 1996 and truly making a difference! Origence is honored to be among those who fundraise for the kids! I’m looking forward to attending Children’s Hospitals Week in April and celebrating this momentous occasion…I hope to see many of you there!

Origence was proud to be the presenting sponsor of the Bradley Rofer Golf Tournament yesterday. What a beautiful day on the course honoring the legacy of Bradley Rofer, son of Origence’s Deputy General Counsel, Aron Rofer. Bradley was a special young man, helping others in his community…a true inspiration to us all. His legacy continues through The Bradley Rofer Foundation whose focus it is to help children in the community. #BeLikeBradley #Bradley’sBeautifulBouquets #TheBradleyRoferFoundation
