Foundation Scholarship Committee

The Foundation Scholarship Council (FSC) strives to build credit union brand awareness and strengthen member relationships through its scholarship program.

Minnesota CU 4 Kids

​Credit Unions for Kids is a grassroots program that involves participation from Minnesota credit unions and the Minnesota Credit Union Network. All funds raised in Minnesota’s CMN geographic market stay local, supporting Gillette Children’s Specialty Healthcare  in St. Paul, Minnesota. The purpose of this committee is to support our local CMN hospital, encourage other credit unions and leagues to join in the program, and provide national movement recognition for CUFK

Community Investment Fund

Credit unions can contribute to the Minnesota Credit Union Foundation (MnCUF) by investing in the National Credit Union Foundation’s (the Foundation) Community Investment Fund (CIF). Established in 1999, the CIF allows investing credit unions to receive 50 percent of the return, and the remaining 50 percent is split evenly between the MnCUF and the NCUF.

The CIF provides a unique vehicle to support financial education, professional development, community outreach and emergency assistance, not only in Minnesota, but across the country as well.​
