HAEFCU Announces “Ca$h for the Classroom” Recipients
April 9, 2025
Huron Area Education Federal Credit Union is excited to announce the winners of its spring semester “Ca$h for the Classroom” program, which aims to support educators. With a board made up of current and former school employees, HAEFCU recognizes the unique challenges teachers face.
This semester, Melody
Witte-Trowbridge, a 6th-grade math teacher, and Kristi Winegar, a 7th-grade ELA
teacher, both at the Huron Middle School, each received $150 to purchase
classroom supplies. Over
the years, this initiative has provided valuable support to educators, helping
them enhance their classrooms and improve their students’ learning experiences.
The credit
union holds this drawing twice a year and the next drawing will be this fall.
Educators in the counties of Beadle, Hand, Kingsbury, Sanborn and Spink who are
members of the credit union are eligible and encouraged to contact HAEFCU and
fill out a short application for their chance to get extra “Ca$h” for the Classroom.
