Mid Minnesota Federal Credit Union Honors Carol Tower as a CU Builder

5/25/2021

The Minnesota Credit Union Foundation (MnCUF) and Mid Minnesota Federal Credit Union (MMFCU) are proud to recognize Carol Tower as a CU Builder in memoriam of her service to the credit union movement. Carol’s family was presented the award at MMFCU’s Annual Meeting last week.

​​"In her role as Executive Assistant, Carol’s efforts as Grassroots Coordinator set an example for political advocacy within MMFCU, the Minnesota Credit Union Network and at a federal level," said Chuck Albrecht, Mid Minnesota Federal Credit Union President/CEO. "Carol is and will be missed."

Locally, MMFCU was recognized for multiple years as having the highest percentage of employees and members participating in GREAT (Grassroots Education and Action Team). ​
Carol annually organized and participated in CU Day at the Capitol, passionately sharing her love for credit unions and stories of member impact with local lawmakers and statewide leaders.

​Nationally, GAC and Hike the Hill events were regularly attended by Carol. "When our Board Chair travelled with Carol to Washington DC, she was so impressed by Carol’s advocacy for the credit union movement and how many people knew Carol and her passion for the credit union movement," continued Albrecht.

​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 time of significance to acknowledge an individual’s contributions to credit unions.

In total, 79 individuals have been designated as Credit Union Builders over the past nine years. The names of the recipients and the contributing credit unions are permanently displayed in the Minnesota Credit Union Network’s lobby as a tribute to those who have dedicated time and energy to building the credit union movement.
