Ascend Federal Credit Union, the largest credit union in Middle Tennessee, has been named Best Credit Union in the 2022 Rutherford County Main Street Awards sponsored by the Murfreesboro Post. This is the seventh year in a row Ascend has won Best Credit Union category. Ascend was also one of three finalists for Best Bank and Best Mortgage Lender.
“Once again, it’s a tremendous honor to win this award,” said Ascend President and CEO Caren Gabriel. “We’d like to thank the readers of the Murfreesboro Post for recognizing us for the seventh consecutive year, as we continue to provide the best experience for Ascend members. This award also reflects the tireless efforts of our employees in Middle Tennessee, and I’d like to extend my gratitude to the entire Ascend team for their hard work and success.”
Winners were selected by Murfreesboro Post readers, who cast more than 111,000 votes this year for their favorite local businesses, breaking all previous voting records. This was the seventh year the Murfreesboro Post has held the awards for Rutherford County.
The awards ceremony was held at New Vision Baptist Church in Murfreesboro on August 5. The ceremony was held in-person this year for the first time since 2019, after the award was presented virtually for two years due to COVID-19. To view the awards presentation video, visit murfreesboropost.com.
