VANDALIA — The Land of Lincoln Credit Union branch of Vandalia was recently presented with the award of “Community Involvement Business of the Year” distributed by the City of Vandalia as a part of the sixth Annual Small Business Awards.
“One of the reasons that I love working for Land of Lincoln Credit Union is because the organization supports and encourages our
community involvement and our community investment initiatives,” stated Kristen Bowling, LLCU Vandalia branch manager. “To be recognized by residents and the City of Vandalia for our efforts is such an honor, and solidifies that what we do truly does make an impact on our community and improves the lives of those we serve.”
The City of Vandalia Small Business Awards are hosted annually in coordination with National Small Business Week. Nominations are collected by local residents and from those nominations, recipients are selected and awarded.
As the award was presented to LLCU at the start of the City Council meeting held Monday, December 16, City Administrator LaTisha Paslay had some remarks.
“Land of Lincoln Credit Union has made its presence known in Vandalia. They are strong supporters of many local programs, most notably the City of Vandalia’s “Shop with a Cop” program,” said Paslay. “They have made many contributions to the school
programs as well, such as the “Forging our Future” campaign, and they continue to sponsor many events for the city as well as for the community in general.”
The City of Vandalia conducts the Small Business Awards to involve residents in celebrating local businesses and honoring the efforts of businesses that enhance the quality of life in Vandalia. For more information on the Small Business Awards, visit www.vandaliaillinois.com.
