The Minnesota Credit Unions for Kids (MnCU4Kids) 2012 Chain of Hearts fundraiser will take place from Jan. 9 to Feb. 24, 2012. All proceeds from the fundraiser benefit Gillette Children's Hospital in St. Paul and its clinics statewide, which help kids with disabilities and chronic conditions.

For the fundraiser, credit union members purchase paper links and hearts at their credit union branch, which are connected and hung in the lobby to help illustrate the “people helping people” philosophy of credit unions. Ten years ago the MnCU4Kids committee took this fundraiser statewide for the first time. This year the MnCU4Kids committee hopes to raise $35,000 through this fundraiser.

Participating credit unions should receive a Chain of Hearts campaign kit in December, which includes hearts, links and posters. In addition, the following Chain of Hearts materials are available for download:

Throughout the campaign, if you need additional hearts, links or posters, contact Gillette’s Becky DeRosia by e-mail or at (651) 229-1709. With questions, contact one of the following Chain of Hearts subcommittee members:
