SD Central Credit Unions Named Chapter of the Year

The South Dakota Central Chapter of credit unions of the Huron, South Dakota, region received the Chapter of the Year Award at the Dakota Credit Union Association (DakCU) awards banquet that was recently held at Grand Falls Casino & Resort in Larchwood, Iowa.

The Chapter of the Year Award recognizes one credit union chapter in North or South Dakota for its outstanding achievements in advocacy, communication, education, and community involvement.

This year, the winner was selected because of their strong commitment to the credit union philosophy of “people helping people.” This is demonstrated by the chapter’s outstanding service to their rural communities, including six community service events, hundreds of volunteer hours, and financial donations to multiple charitable organizations.

The SD Central Chapter of Credit Unions includes: Dakotaland FCU; M-O FCU; HB Telco FCU; Huron Area Education FCU; Dakota Rail Line FCU; all of Huron, and Oahe FCU of Pierre. The Pierre branch of Black Hills FCU is also an associate chapter member.
