HAEFCU "Ca$h for the Classroom"

By Huron Area Education Federal Credit Union

Huron Area Education Federal Credit Union (HAEFCU) pleased to announce the winners of our Fall semester “Ca$h for the Classroom” drawing. The two credit union members who each won $200 to purchase supplies for their classroom were Stacey Westby, a 2nd Grade Special Education teacher at Madison 2-3 Center in Huron, and Danielle Kohlmeyer, a 7–12 Grade English teacher in the Woonsocket School District. We understand the needs that our educators have in providing the necessary materials for their students and are honored to be able to assist in this way. Over the past 11 years, we have had the privilege of helping 46 educators purchase the “extras” for their classroom.

This drawing is held twice a year, with the next one coming up this spring. Current educators in the counties of Beadle, Hand, Kingsbury, Sanborn, and Spink who are members of the credit union are eligible and encouraged to contact HAEFCU and fill out a short application for their chance to get extra “ca$h” for the classroom.

​The Huron Area Education Federal Credit Union was formed in 1952 by a group of educators looking to provide a better financial option for their co-workers. In doing so they created a financial institution that understands the needs of educators, a philosophy still holds true today.
