Evergreen CU’s top lending partners are recognized for their work in a special awards ceremony at USM Portland’s Hannaford Hall.
On October 26, Evergreen CU proudly welcomed over 150 attendees to its annual Member Appreciation Night, held to celebrate and thank its dedicated members for their loyalty and commitment to the credit union. The highlight of the evening was an inspiring keynote address by retired U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Travis Mills, who shared his remarkable story of resilience and determination.
At Hannaford Hall on the University of Southern Maine’s Portland campus, the event was filled with an atmosphere of appreciation and unity, underscoring Evergreen CU’s commitment to creating a positive impact on the lives of its members and Maine’s communities. Attendees enjoyed a night of camaraderie with community partners, which culminated in Mills’ heartfelt message that captivated and motivated everyone present.
“We are honored to serve such a loyal and engaged membership,” said Evergreen CU President/CEO, Jason Lindstrom. “Our members are at the heart of everything we do, and Member Appreciation Night is our way of showing our gratitude for their trust and support. Having Travis Mills as our guest speaker made this year’s event even more special.”
Travis Mills, a quadruple amputee who became one of only five soldiers from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to survive such severe injuries and later went on to establish the Travis Mills Foundation, delivered an inspiring talk about overcoming adversity, finding strength in community, and living life to the fullest.
