Creating meaningful connections: AmeriCU & Virgil

“I have to be honest that I had tears of relief in my eyes when I was speaking with you. I could have pulled money from a few places to do this project but really didn’t want to. My family appreciates AmeriCU believing in us to make this happen. When I told them we got the financing they started to cry with hope and joy. It is one less stress I have to worry about instead of pulling from here and there to make this happen.

 

I am loyal to those that believe in me and recognize my past hard work. Thank you all for that. I feel like a person again and not a number tossed into a computer. That restored my faith in humanity.

 

I look forward to sitting with you all and learning about all your services.”
