Summit Silent Auction

Support credit union advocacy at Summit by participating in the silent auction benefiting the Roger Heacock Scholarship Fund.

The Silent Auction is back at this year’s Dakota Credit Union Association Annual Summit, May 12-14, all in support of the Roger Heacock Scholarship Fund!
 
This is your chance to make a meaningful impact on credit union advocacy across the Dakotas. Funds raised help provide scholarships for professionals to attend the national Governmental Affairs Conference in Washington, D.C., as well as key advocacy events like our fall Hike the Hill.
 
Since 2008, the fund has awarded 101 scholarships totaling $85,500, empowering credit union professionals to grow, engage, and represent our movement at a national level.

We’re now accepting items for this year’s auction and your credit union can play a key role in making it a success!

• Gourmet baskets (wine, whiskey, themed gift sets, grilling items)
