We are pleased to inform you that Home Federal’s previously announced merger with Alerus closed on October 9, 2024. We want to take this opportunity to thank you for your relationship and continued business, welcome you to Alerus, and provide an outline of what to expect as we complete this transition.

Home Federal is part of Alerus. You may notice signs and other references to Home Federal changing to Alerus over the coming weeks. However, the actual transfer of your accounts, online banking, and debit cards to Alerus systems will not take place until early December. You can expect to receive detailed information in early November regarding your account transition, as well as key dates and information about Alerus products and services. Alerus debit cards will be mailed in late November.

In the meantime, please continue conducting business as usual. Our office hours and contact information have not changed, and we are happy to answer any additional questions you might have.
This merger will provide new and expanded opportunities to help you achieve your financial goals. Alerus is a Member FDIC-insured bank that offers a full suite of financial services, including consumer and business banking, mortgage, wealth services, and retirement and benefits services. You will gain access to an expanded line of products and services without sacrificing the personalized service you are accustomed to receiving at Home Federal. We have been working closely for months to prepare for this transition and are committed to making it a seamless process for you.

Your relationship and business are very important to us, and we are excited to continue serving you as Alerus. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact our team or visit one of our offices. We look forward to providing you with continued updates in the coming weeks.
