BURNSVILLE, Minn. — US Federal Credit Union packed on the pounds for Minnesota FoodShare.

Playing off the reality show "The Biggest Loser," the credit union took a new twist by persuading its "Biggest fundRAISER contestants" to reach for a weighty outcome by donating pounds of food and monetary gifts.

USFCU ended up collecting a total of 12,579.93 dollars/pounds of food with the final scale reading displaying $9,821.93 raised and 2,758 pounds of food, causing the dial to surpass this year's already boosted target of 7,000 pounds/dollars and raising a US Federal record.
