Idaho Community Votes: Connections Credit Union Named Bronze Winner at 2026 Idaho’s Best Awards

Posted by on May 5, 2026

Connections Credit Union has been named a Bronze Award winner in the Credit Union category at the 2026 Idaho’s Best Awards. Determined entirely by public vote, the recognition reflects the trust that members across the state have placed in Connections Credit Union for nearly 90 years.

With ten branch locations across southern Idaho, including Meridian, Boise, Nampa, Twin Falls, Heyburn, Pocatello, Firth, and Idaho Falls paired with a mobile branch that brings financial services directly to underserved rural communities, we ensure that no Idahoan is left without access to a local, personal financial partner where traditional branches cannot reach.

“We are honored to be recognized as a bronze winner for Idaho’s Best in the Credit Union category,” shared Jamie Simmons, Connections Credit Union CEO. “This award reflects the trust of our members and the dedication of our team to making a positive impact on the communities we serve.”

The Idaho’s Best Awards, presented by Idaho’s Best, recognize businesses and organizations across dozens of categories based on votes cast by Idaho residents. Earning bronze in the Credit Union category among institutions serving communities statewide reflects the strength of the relationships we have built with our members and the communities we proudly serve.

The mission at Connections Credit Union is to connect communities and members to modern financial services while empowering financial success through time‑honored credit union values. That mission guides every decision they make from the branch locations they choose, to the rates they set, to the relationships they build with their members. True to their values, every dollar of value they generate flows back to their members through competitive rates, lower fees, and direct reinvestment in the communities their members call home.
