Member Appreciation Events

Member Appreciation Events

Thank you for celebrating with us this August during our annual Member Appreciation Events! This year, we offered both in-person and virtual options, and during each of the six branch celebrations, we gave multiple opportunities to win amazing prizes. We offered a total of 12 grand prizes of $500 each, six $250 prizes, as well as 12 Bucky Bear youth prizes of $50 each.* Registration has now closed.


 

In the spirit of community support, we’re also highlighting the important work of our local food shelves, who make a difference every day for our neighbors in need. We encourage you to bring any non-perishable food items or gently used coats and accessories to donate during the events. Together, we can make a positive impact and lend a helping hand to those who need it most. Join us this August for our Member and Community Appreciation Events and let’s celebrate together. Thank you for being a valued member of Ideal Credit Union!

Ideal CU will make $500 donations to:

  • Hugo Good Neighbors Food Shelf
  • Neighbors, Inc.
  • The Open Door
  • North St. Paul Area Food Shelf
  • Open Cupboard
  • Valley Outreach
