Affinity Plus launches new credit builder loan
ST PAUL, MN (February 19, 2021)
A low credit score can exclude good people from getting a car loan, renting an apartment – even being offered a job. Affinity Plus Federal Credit Union is pleased to announce the Affinity Plus Credit Builder Loan, designed to help those who need to establish a credit history for the first time, or perhaps rebuild credit after a challenging time.
With the Credit Builder Loan, members can borrow $500-$1,000, with a fixed APR. They pay it back over flexible terms, up to 18 months. Once the loan is paid in full, the principal amount borrowed becomes theirs to keep.
Check out all the good news.

A local Duluthian donated $1,000 in boxed meals from Vanilla Bean Restaurant to Emergency Room/COVID nursing staff at both Essentia and St. Luke’s. On Dec. 21, John Goldfine sent boxed meals to both hospitals for workers in the COVID units. His gift was in honor of the University of Minnesota Duluth’s men’s hockey team. Goldfine also encouraged others in the Twin Ports who are looking for ways to give back to consider sending meals to the local hospitals. This donation comes on the heels of another anonymous donation of $500 in meals to Essentia workers earlier this month.
