MILWAUKEE, WI, and NOTRE DAME, IN – June 25, 2026 – Trusted Fraternal Life and Notre Dame Federal Credit Union have partnered to expand financial solutions and resources available to members of both organizations.

This new initiative allows two mission-driven organizations to help individuals and families strengthen their financial security through trusted guidance, accessible financial products and long-term relationships rooted in shared values.

The two organizations will focus on financial wellness, education and member awareness initiatives intended to help members better understand available banking, lending, insurance and financial protection solutions at key life stages. Specific programs and initiatives will be developed jointly over time.

“Both of our organizations exist to serve members—not shareholders,” said John Borgen, President & CEO of Trusted Fraternal Life. “This is about helping members discover additional resources and financial protection opportunities through two organizations that share a commitment to faith, stewardship and putting people first.”

“This relationship reflects a shared belief that financial institutions should put people before profit,” said Thomas Gryp, President and CEO of Notre Dame Federal Credit Union. “Together, we are creating new opportunities to help individuals and families access trusted financial guidance and strengthen their financial well-being in a way that reflects their values.”

The collaboration centers on helping members learn about resources and opportunities, while each organization continues to manage its own member relationships.
