We are also humbled by the kind words we have recently received from several members about the value of being a member of the Minnesota Credit Union Network. "Minnco has continually benefited from our membership with the Network - from the Foundation, legal, and compliance services to ongoing advocacy efforts in Minnesota and Washington. Our membership helps Minnco nurture the collaborative benefits with all sizes of credit unions in Minnesota. Most recently, I’ve been very impressed with the new Medicare Advisory service. Dave Brown has demonstrated extensive experience and is a resource I am proud and confident to offer to our members!" - Doug Hallstrom, President/CEO, Minnco Credit Union. "I am engaged with the Minnesota Credit Union Network because of the value it brings to my career and my credit union. The networking events have been a large help in my career by allowing me access to other credit union people that I would not have normally had the opportunity to meet. The peer-to-peer sessions are also a chance to have an in-depth conversation with others in the industry. The information gained from my colleagues helped save my credit union money in a tough year. I wouldn’t be where I am without the help of MnCUN!" -Justin Houle, VP of Finance, Heartland Credit Union MnCUN staff would like to thank each member for supporting a thriving credit union system in Minnesota.
