“At Heartland Credit Union you are not just a number, you
are a person with your own story and financial needs.
Heartland recognizes this and has financial opportunities
for everyone at every step of their life. From the moment
you walk in the door on your first visit, it is like you
belong, like family.”
Receiving a $500 scholarship is
Cindy Kaine of Farmington, MN.

“(Heartland) accounts can be managed any time, day or night.
You can set all of your payments up on their free bill pay
system. It is great! You can customize it to exactly what
you need! The new building in Inver Grove Heights is
gorgeous, and they have full service banking available, even
on Saturdays! Plus, one more bonus is if you happen to work
for CHS (or Land O'Lakes), they have a branch right in the
corporate office. Banking does not get any more convenient
than that!”

Also receiving a $500 scholarship is
Bill Nownes of Inver Grove Heights,
MN.

“I am
able to recommend Heartland because it offers better service
and benefits. Heartland operates as a not-for-profit
financial institution, chartered to serve member needs.
Profits accrue to members rather than stockholders. Board
members are volunteers, and Heartland itself is
member-owned. As a locally operated credit union, Heartland
helps keep money in Dakota County. Heartland's impact on the
community is, in my opinion, an important feature of
membership. Heartland membership offers personal financial
solutions and helps make Dakota County a better place to
work and live.”
FIC
