CommunityAmerica Completes Midwest United Merger
Credit union combination provides more convenient access to members
LENEXA, Kan. (04/28/2008) -- CommunityAmerica and Midwest United credit unions have put the final touches on their merger that took effect in November 2007.
Since the merger was announced last year, the credit unions have been working to integrate accounts, technologies and systems.
"Midwest United members now have full access to CommunityAmerica's 27 branches, a nationwide network of 25,000 ATMs and more products with enhanced features," said Dennis Pierce, CommunityAmerica's chief executive officer.
Pierce complimented the staffs of both credit unions on the efficiency and effectiveness of the transition.
"Our team works daily for the benefit of our members," Pierce said. "We know members experience this service in our branches and drive-through windows, so it is especially rewarding to know that those who labor behind the scenes do so with the same strong sense of service excellence and member commitment."
CommunityAmerica and Midwest United share a similar Kansas City heritage. The former was founded in 1940 as the credit union for Trans World Airlines, and the latter was founded in 1945 by employees of the Ford Motor Co. Claycomo plant.
