The Minnco Credit Union Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization was established by Minnco Credit Union in 2017, to support financial education in our schools and charitable initiatives in our communities.
The Minnco Foundation supports financial literacy and charitable initiatives in our communities.
Minnco has sponsored an online financial education program in partnership with Banzai in our high schools for the last four years at no cost to the schools. We have sponsored seven schools and reached over 1300 students. We have also given many presentations on financial education at many of our local schools and colleges. The Foundation will continue to help support our schools and teachers with Financial Education and funds for students and teachers.
In 2021, the Foundation sponsored an online and workbook based financial education program in six high schools. The sponsorship was formed through a partnership with Banzai using their curriculum. The areas covered in the program include savings, budgeting, credit scores, financing higher education, renting vs. owning, unexpected expenses and more. The Foundation reached over 304 students at 6 schools with Banzai in the 2021 school year. The high schools sponsored are:
In March 2021, the Foundation and the credit union partnered to raise money and food for local food shelves. The Foundation raised over $27,000 for local food shelves.
In August 2021, the Foundation worked in partnership with the credit union for a school supply drive. In total all 6 credit union branches collected supplies for local schools, including:

For the past 15 years, Minnco has empowered my husband and me to live our best lives! We are big outdoor enthusiasts, and Minnco financed several toys for our outdoor enjoyment (fishing boat, Ice Castle, and multiple ATVs). Thank you for investing in us!Isaiah and Jessicah R -90th Anniversary Testimonial
I love the people, I love the ease ability of banking, and there is never any hassle when it comes to working with Minnco.Jeff W.
Always there right away when I need them!Suzannah M.
Minnco was there when we needed money for home improvements. They were also there when we needed a costly water treatment system. The company we purchased the water system from originally financed us through a high-interest rate loan, which we quickly transferred to Minnco at a much lower interest rate. Way to go, Minnco!Tricia K -90th Anniversary Testimonial
Joanne K -90th Anniversary TestimonialIn 1996, my husband and I were looking to become first-time homeowners. We knew we were going to need a loan, so we decided to look in the community where we hoped to live and raise our family. We approached a few banks and then learned of Minnco. The reception, respect, and support we received at our first appointment secured the deal and we have been members ever since.
It's not a national level chain of branch offices... it's local banking for local people.Paul A.
I love it when I come through the drive through and they know who I am and call me by name. This is personal service which is missed in the world today. It makes me feel like I am valued by Minnco.Emilie B.
Local, hometown, friendly bank. Due to the downturn in the economy many years ago, Minnco made it possible for us to get our life back on track financially after a job loss. We wouldn't be where we are today without their help years ago.Anne R.
Minnco is a great place to do business and belong to as a member!Kat E.
I love Minnco because of the fast service and friendly faces.Miah G.
I love Minnco because they always make everything so easy. I have had several loans and the process is quick and easy.Cynthia
Sharon K -90th Anniversary TestimonialI have been a member of Cambridge Co-op Credit Union/Minnco Credit Union for about 60 years. When I was 18, I bought my first car after getting a loan from Andre. For myself and my five brothers, all we had to do was give him our name and he trusted us and we got the loan, no questions asked. This created trust and respect that has lasted my entire life.
Minnco has always been easy to work with for all of my questions and loan needs.Paul S.
Fantastic service & very competitive rates. They are always willing to go above and beyond for members.Samantha S.
Scott and ErinWe purchased the Route 66 warranty for our Chevy pick up. It was a great decision because the transmission went out on us 6 months later. The warranty saved us $3,300. The only thing we had to pay was the sales tax of the transmission. They were so wonderful to work with and it was so easy. We strongly recommend investing in the Route 66 warranty!
I love Minnco because they have always been there to help me with my banking needs. The staff are always super friendly whenever I have any questions.Cheryl W.
For the first time ever, my card was compromised. Soon as I noticed it, I contacted Minnco. They were fast and efficient on taking care of my issue. They immediately put my concerns at ease. My account is back in order and a heavy weight was lifted off my shoulders. I am so grateful to know that my finances are in safe hands!Tara C
Minnco has supported my ability to provide the best care for my horses. They financed a trailer so I could haul them to receive medical care, and they provided financing so we could build stalls. As any horse owner will tell you, horses are the best part of my day, and they keep me sane. Minnco gave me the ability to be a better horse mom.Denise S -90th Anniversary Testimonial
