We had a great time volunteering with McWarm today! We peeled potatoes and carrots for the lunch meal, wrapped silverware, served food and dried dishes. Thanks to Evita at OUR Credit Union, Jennifer at Ignite Credit Union and Mickie, Megan and Rebekah from Christian Financial Credit Union for all your help today! Truly showcasing the credit union difference in action. ♥️

Thank you to all the CU's who participated in our recent fundraiser with Motown Soup! We sold $1970 worth of product of that $492.50 is going to The Wave Project! This wonderful (and super easy fundraiser) helped both of our 2024 Charities. We appreciate all that you guys do to continue to help us live out the CU mission of "people helping people".

On Thursday April 11th, 20 or so of us from various CU's that are a part of the Chapter met up at Motown Soup to package products for them to sell. Motown Soup is one of the Non-Profits we are committed to helping this year with our various fundraising efforts. We currently have a fundraiser going on with them until April 30th. If you are interested in making a purchase from Motown Soup that would not only benefit them, but also our other non-profit, The Wave Project, please message us and we can walk you through. Motown Soup sells soups, dips, desserts and much more! Their products make great gifts for Mother's Day, Birthdays, and showers.

We were honored to support Macomb Foster Closet in 2023!

People Helping People? More like People Helping Kids!

Board members Cheryl Duncan and Kevin McAlpine (centered) were excited to accept a $9,512.36 check from the Metro East Chapters of Credit Unions. Credit Unions are committed to serving the community and they demonstrate it with their support of many important causes.

These dollars will be put towards the Forever Home Campaign of the Macomb Foster Closet. We can't wait to invite them, and you, in to see what their support was able to do!

Are you a member of a credit union? Give us a hand to meet our goal at https://www.gofundme.com/f/5xmzr7-forever-home-campaign

We are almost there!

This year, we focused on Gianna house and Macomb Foster Closet for our charity committee to help out.

We did a gift card drive for Gianna’s house this summer and helped Macomb Foster Closet set up for their mom to mom sale that is their biggest fundraiser of the year.

Thank you to all the CUs that helped us make these events possible!! We cannot do it without all of you!!
