✨ BIG news for our community! ✨

So proud to share that Carri Pedelty was selected as a 2026 Thrivent Generosity Hero! 🎉

Carri is a Sr. Commercial Services Relationship Manager at Midland States Bank and also volunteers countless hours with the Illinois Valley Brain Injury Clubhouse, serving as Treasurer, helping at fundraisers, and always stepping up wherever needed. Out of more than 2,300 nominations during National Volunteer Week, she was chosen for her generosity and dedication to helping others.

Because of this recognition, Thrivent will donate up to $5,000 to support a participating organization in our community. 💙

If you know Carri, you know she never asks for recognition — she simply shows up and helps. We are incredibly proud of her and all she does!
