Jefferson City, MO — West Community Credit Union was honored to be the recipient of the ServMO “Business of the Year” award for our 2024 service to the community.
ServMO held its 23rd Annual Show Me Service Awards at the Missouri State Capitol to recognize the impact of service and volunteerism throughout the state. The Show Me Service Awards highlights the service and volunteerism that Missourians provide to strengthen our communities and improve quality of life.
“The Show Me Service Awards is an annual reminder that volunteering brings together neighbors and entire communities in support of a stronger Missouri,” said Brittany Crabtree, Executive Director of ServMO. “These awardees are showing the way for all of us to contribute more, stay connected, and to find practical solutions to local challenges.”
The credit union was nominated by AmeriCorps St. Louis for our “above and beyond” commitment to the community in 2024. From donation drives, event sponsorships, and monetary donations to group volunteer efforts, we logged 941 service hours including our all staff volunteer day in which employees volunteered at 10 different sites throughout St. Louis and Columbia and raised $8,640 for our Denim for Dollars initiative.
“It was an honor to be nominated by our partners at AmeriCorps St. Louis,” praised Lori Hudson, Community Outreach Manager, who attended the ceremony in Jefferson City. “Our employees truly care about our members and the communities we serve. And it was a pleasure to see their efforts recognized and accept this award on their behalf.”
The Show Me Service Awards was open to the public, and speakers included Lieutenant Governor David Wasinger, Director of the Department of Economic Development Michelle Hataway, and Missouri Community Service Commission Chair Jennifer Ingraham. This event was also live streamed on the ServMO Facebook page.
