It’s that time of year again. WMBF has started taking nominations for their Best of the Grand Strand contest. We'd love for you to nominate Carolina Trust Federal Credit Union as BEST BANK/MORTGAGE company on the Grand Strand.
Votes are cast via email address so that you can send in one nomination for Carolina Trust as Best Bank, per email address, per day. Only the top five nominees will move on to the official voting round, so nominations are super important. The nomination period will end on 4/12 at the end of the day.
You can find Carolina Trust under the Services category> Bank and Services category> Mortgage.
You can nominate daily, so please continue to support your credit union by nominating us each day in both categories. We thank you in advance for your support continuing to do so!
The 2026 Annual Meeting for Carolina Trust has been rescheduled for Thursday, May 21st at Horry Georgetown Technical College Burroughs and Chapin Auditorium.

Habitat for Humanity Build
Employees got to live out the credit union philosophy, “people helping people,” by framing a home with Habitat for Humanity.
