Credit unions hold fast to their motto of “People Helping People” and this philosophy blossoms with credit union’s support of non-profit Children’s Miracle Network hospitals.
Credit Unions have sponsored Children’s Miracle Network since 1996, when the Credit Union For Kids program was developed. Today, credit unions across the United States collaborate with credit union chapters, leagues and business partners to raise much-needed funds to benefit over 170 Children’s Miracle Network hospitals.
Fund raising campaigns range from golf tournaments and loan promotions to special credit and debit cards that offer a donation of a percentage of purchases to local children’s hospitals.
Since 1996, the Credit
Unions For Kids program has generated over $65 million for Children’s Miracle
Network hospitals. The funds raised help support new facilities, equipment,
research programs, patient services, special patient needs and health education
programs benefiting 17 million children annually.
