We’re thrilled to share that USF Credit Union’s very own CEO, Rick Skaggs, was recently awarded the Distinguished Citizen Award at the University of South Florida’s Spring Commencement in May 2025.

This isn’t just any recognition, it’s one of the most prestigious honors USF bestows, presented by President Rhea Law on the university’s biggest stage.

The Distinguished Citizen Award celebrates Rick’s lasting impact—not only within USF Credit Union, but across communities throughout Florida. It honors a career shaped by purpose-driven leadership, bold innovation, and an unwavering commitment to putting people first.

If you know Rick, you know he doesn’t just lead. He builds. He inspires. He sets the bar higher and challenges all of us to think bigger, act with intention, and deliver real value to our members. Under his guidance, USF Credit Union has grown into a strong, forward-thinking, mission-driven organization grounded in service and excellence.

Seeing Rick recognized in a moment as meaningful as this—on a stage that matters so much to both our credit union and the USF community—is something we’re incredibly proud of. It’s more than a personal milestone; it’s a reflection of leadership that empowers others and drives lasting impact.

Congratulations to Rick on this well-earned honor. We’re proud to celebrate this moment and even more excited about what’s next.

Stay tuned, because we’re just getting started.
