We are governed by a volunteer board of directors and staffed by passionate financial professionals who put members first in everything we do. Leading this mission is Dana DeFilippis, CEO of MSDFCU. With over 25 years of experience in the financial services industry, Dana has been a dedicated part of the MSDFCU team since 1999.

This anniversary honors our legacy while reinforcing our future-forward approach—combining financial stability, innovation, and personalized service.

- $25,000 in scholarships awarded to five service-driven high school seniors
- Introduction of key member-focused services:
- Early Pay Access – get paid up to two days early

The Chamber Showcase, a contribution-based feature that will be shared via the Chamber website, emails, and social media channels. All we ask is that you submit an article and photo(s) that we can use in this new regular feature. Our goal is to publish this column on a regular basis (bi-weekly or monthly, depending on the content we receive), so the more member businesses and organizations that send us material, the better. This can be content highlighting an employee, a milestone, or sharing your expertise on an industry topic.
We look forward to you participating in the project and helping us to promote you
