Border Bank is committed to protecting the people and communities we serve. As part of that mission, we are proud to host an educational event - Safeguarding Communities – Understanding Scams and Elder Exploitation on Monday, November 10, 2:00 PM, at the Warroad Senior Living Center.

Led by Heidi Schumacher, Fraud Manager at Border Bank, the presentation will offer practical guidance on how to recognize, prevent, and respond to scams, fraud, and elder abuse. A Q&A session will follow, and local law enforcement will be present to share additional insights and resources. The event is free of charge, open to the public, and no RSVP is required. Refreshments will be served.

“Heidi brings both expertise and compassion to her work,” said Tammy Stanton, Chief Risk and Operations Officer at Border Bank. “With 18 years of experience and leadership roles in the Financial and Retailers Protection Association and the North Dakota Bankers Association Fraud Forum, she is one of the most respected voices in fraud education. Attendees will benefit from her deep knowledge and dedication to community safety.”

Founded in 1935, Border Bank operates eleven branches across Minnesota and North Dakota, including locations in Coon Rapids, Thief River Falls, Greenbush, Roseau, Badger, Middle River, Clearbrook, Baudette, International Falls, and Fargo. In addition to banking services, Border Bank owns Northern Ag, an insurance agency focused on helping American farmers protect their livelihoods through innovative risk management solutions.
