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

Credit Union Builder
Created in 2008, the Credit Union Builder Award honors an individual’s dedication to the success, growth, and vitality of the not-for-profit financial movement in Minnesota.
Dedications are typically made at a special time of significance to acknowledge their contributions to credit unions. The name of the recipient are permanently displayed in lobby of the state trade association, the Minnesota Credit Union Network, as a tribute to those who have dedicated time and energy to building the credit union movement. The honorees (or their families, in the case of an "in memoriam" contribution) receive acknowledgement from the Minnesota Credit Union Foundation, and donors are also listed online and in the Foundation’s annual report. A minimum $1,500 contribution is required to designate a Credit Union Builder Award. The Minnesota Credit Union Foundation, Inc., St. Paul, Minn., is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization. For tax purposes, contributions may be tax-deductible. With questions, please feel free to contact us. |
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. |
