A decade ago, St. Cloud Financial Credit Union saw an opportunity to celebrate what often goes unnoticed: the people quietly making Central Minnesota a better place. They aren't looking for recognition or expecting an award. They simply see a need, step in, and make a difference — whether that's supporting families through grief, mentoring students, building stronger workplaces, giving back with their time or treasure, or creating spaces where others feel like they belong. They are ordinary, everyday people who are making an extraordinary impact — and they deserve to be celebrated. That's why SCFCU created the Changemakers Award.

St. Cloud Financial Credit Union continues to deepen its involvement throughout Central Minnesota and beyond, with its leaders and employees serving organizations that make a meaningful difference in the communities we call home. The latest example of that commitment comes from SCFCU Executive Vice President and Chief Lending Officer Chase Larson, who has joined the Central Minnesota Habitat for Humanity (CMHFH) Board of Directors. As part of the Board of Directors, Larson will help provide strategic leadership and governance to ensure CMHFH remains focused on its mission and is positioned for long-term success.

St. Cloud Financial Credit Union is once again teaming up with the St. Cloud Rox and Advantage 1 Insurance to raise money and awareness for our local veterans. SCFCU and Advantage 1 Insurance are proudly sponsoring Rox Military Appreciation Night on Aug. 1 at Joe Faber Field in St. Cloud, an annual night that raises funds through a jersey auction in support of veterans and their families.
