Credit unions accept Founders Award from CMN Hospitals
On Wednesday, April 10th, the Credit Unions for Kids National Advisory Board accepted the Founders Award on behalf of the credit union industry.
The Founder’s Award is a highly prestigious award provided to a distinguished individual or organizations who have made amazing contributions to CMN Hospitals. These contributions positively impact and benefit member hospitals, including time, effort, talent, significant personal commitment, or a leadership role. This award is not given out every year – only in special instances. Previous winners include Steve Young (NFL Hall of Famer) and Marriott for being the first corporate partner. This year marked the 7th time the award has been given out.
The Credit Unions for Kids National Advisory Board accepted the award on behalf of the credit union industry. Board Members are: Brad Miller (AACUL), Caroline Willard (Cornerstone League), Chris Roe (TruStage), Diana Dykstra (CA/NV Credit Union Leagues), Darren Williams (Wescom Credit Union), Ron Amstutz (Desert Financial Credit Union), and Samantha Paxson. Bill Cheney (SchoolsFirst FCU) is on CMN Hospitals Board of Trustees and was also on stage to accept the award.
John Bratsakis (MDDCCUA), is the Chairman of the Board and shared the acceptance remarks. John spoke about the cooperative difference that are credit unions, how credit unions are leaders in creating financially healthy communities, and how a partnership with Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals has allowed the industry to excel with both of those.
