$1 Billion Back in Patronage

This March will mark two exciting milestones for GreenStone members on Patronage Day. Not only will it be the 20th consecutive year of sharing our profits with our members, but we will also have returned a total of $1 billion back into your hands throughout those 20 years! That’s a lot of dollars!

Exactly how big is 1 billion you might ask? Well to put it into perspective, we thought we’d share some examples with you:

• 1 billion gallons of milk would fill approximately 1,500 Olympic-sized swimming pools.

• There are just under a billion acres of protected recreational land in the U.S. to get out and enjoy!

• A herd of 1 billion cows would require more land than the entire United States.

• 1 billion trees could build approximately 23 million average-size houses

But most important are the countless smiles, handshakes, relationships, and dreams we’ve been lucky enough to help make a reality for over a century. The success of our members is the “why” behind what we do, and we are truly grateful to be able to share our earnings with you for the 20th consecutive year.

To celebrate 20 years of Patronage, we’ll be handing out $120 million in Patronage dividend checks to eligible loan customers on March 20, 2025! Each Patronage-earning member will receive a notification letter in mid-February outlining the amount of your check. That letter will include a personal invitation to join us for a celebration on March 20 at your local branch. Enjoy refreshments, a celebration of our members, our 20 year and $1 billion milestones, and of course, the opportunity to pick up your check.

Patronage is a partnership. Our ability to give back to you, our member-owners, is the direct result of your success and your relationship and trust in GreenStone.
