On February 16. 2010, at the 50th Anniversary Annual Meeting of Methodist Healthcare Federal Credit Union, Doug Stover and Kristi Vick presented Mr. Raymond Mason with a “Loyal Member” plaque for his 50 years of membership. His wife, family members and fellow Credit Union members stood to cheer him on.

On March 9, 1960, Mr. Mason became the 111th member of the newly chartered Credit Union. He is the Credit Union’s longest standing member. In honor of his loyalty and dedication, the North Branch of the Credit Union, located at 3980 New Covington Pike, will be named The Raymond Mason Branch.

Please join us in celebrating this momentous occasion by stopping by the North Branch on March 8, 2010, at 8:30 AM for the dedication ceremony. Refreshments will be provided.

50 Years and Counting...

Welcome to MHFCU's blog! You can come here for the latest news about the credit union. Check in on a regular basis because we have lots of fun things planned for our 50th year!

How exciting this year to be celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Methodist Healthcare Federal Credit Union (MHFCU)!Methodist Healthcare Federal Credit Union’s charter was approved by the National Credit Union Administration on January 26, 1960. From the very first day of business, MHFCU’s purpose has been to provide quality financial services to the Associates of Methodist Healthcare. Today, 50 years later, our mission for serving our members is still the same:

“To always be responsive to our members’ financial needs
by providing personal and innovative services of a superior quality.”

While some Credit Unions have expanded their memberships by opening their doors through a community charter or to a variety of non-related employee groups, MHFCU has remained true to its one sponsor – Methodist Healthcare. While this choice may limit our size, we believe that it enables us to maintain a more personal level of service for our members.

We are excited about the possibilities that our 50th year holds. Although compliance with new regulations and dealing with a down economy continue to challenge us, we are up for the challenge. The Board of Directors, Supervisory Committee, management team and employees of Methodist Healthcare Federal Credit Union are committed to ensuring that as a member, you have every reason to be proud of your Credit Union. MHFCU is a strong financial institution that has always met the savings and borrowing needs of its members. That’s how it was in 1960, and that’s how it remains today.

We want to thank you again for choosing MHFCU to meet your financial needs. And, please, encourage your co-workers and family members to make the same good choice so they can share in the future success of Methodist Healthcare Federal Credit Union.
