March Book Drive for Children's Minnesota Star Studio
Throughout the month of March, we organized a Book Drive with the aim of helping young patients at Children's Minnesota Hospital located in Minneapolis and St. Paul. Our goal was to provide them with enjoyable reading materials to pass the time.
To accomplish this, we sent an e-mail to our membership which contained a link to an Amazon wish list with a selection of books that we had pre-chosen. Members were able to order these books with ease, and they were shipped directly to AHCU's Woodbury branch. We collected 251 books.
The collected books were then distributed through Star Studio, Children's Minnesota's in-house TV program. We are delighted to announce that on April 3rd, the books were donated to Star Studio, and we are grateful to our members who made this achievement possible.
Thank you for your generosity and support in making this event a success!

2022 Adopt A Unit
Throughout 2022, AHCU worked with coordinators at Mercy Hospital and Mercy's Unity Campus to identify hospital units to support.
Each month we delivered gift bags to our "Adopted Units" to remind them that what they do is greatly appreciated.
Below are some of the units we adopted showing hospital workers with AHCU swag.

PCs for People
WOODBURY, Minn. – The Minnesota Credit Union Network (MnCUN), the state trade association for Minnesota’s credit unions, has announced its state-level winners in several categories.
Associated Healthcare Credit Union (AHCU) is the 2022 Dora Maxwell Social Responsibility Community Service Award winner in the $50 - $250 million in assets category.
AHCU’s submission was for their Technology Drive to benefit PCs for People, October 12 -14, 2021.
AHCU encouraged its members to donate their new, used, and broken technology so that it could be fixed and given to low-income families and non-profit organizations or recycled.
Over the three days of accepting technology donations, AHCU collected:
140 laptop computers, 82 computer towers, 81 monitors, 37 tablets, 51 printer/scanners, 80 keyboards, 77 cell phones, an absolute MOUNTAIN of speakers, mice and cable cords, plus a lot more.
According to Rebecca Duvick, Business Development Manager at PCs for People, “Your recent tech drive collected 8,262 pounds of retired electronics from your members - all of which will be refurbished or responsibly recycled with nothing ending up in the landfill!”
Additionally, 41 low-income individuals now have the equipment and the ability to access the internet because of AHCU’s Technology Drive.
AHCU Now Serves St. Catherine University
On August 31, 2022 Liz from our Woodbury Branch and Theresa, President / CEO, helped welcome new students at St. Catherine University in St. Paul, MN.
All St. Catherine University students, staff, faculty and alumni are now eligible to join Associated Healthcare Credit Union.
