Each year at the Dakota Credit Union Association’s Annual Summit, we organize a “Give Back” project to benefit an organization within the community where our event is being held. This year, we asked attendees to bring gift cards in $25 increments that we could present to the local CMN Hospital, Sanford Children’s.
The cards will be distributed by the hospital to families being treated there, whenever they sense a need. Following last year’s success, we were hopeful that it would once again be well received – and let’s just say – you FAR EXCEEDED our expectations. By Wednesday evening, we had collected 110 gift cards – with a total cash value of $2,750. This is an AMAZING show of charitable goodwill by our members, and also many of our vendors and business partners, and WE THANK YOU! Your generosity will go a long way in supporting a family experiencing a medical hardship. Hillery Mork, Lead Development Officer for Sanford Health Foundation appeared at the DakCU awards banquet to accept the donation. Credit unions are the 5th largest corporate sponsor of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, and our Dakota credit unions continue to show their great support! Each gift card was delivered enclosed with this message: Please accept this gift card compliments of Dakotas’ credit unions. We hope it will assist you in some small way as you are undergoing care your local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital. Credit unions are the 5th largest corporate partner of CMN Hospitals! Financial wellness is at the heart of credit unions’ mission within our communities and deeply embedded into our structure. To find a credit union you can join, visit yourmoneyfurther.com.
