Ending 2024, Mercer County Community Federal Credit Union joined the CrossState Credit Union network to spread kindness in the name of CU Kind Day. CU Kind Day is a time for credit union employees and volunteers to come together and spread kindness and demonstrate the credit union philosophy of “People Helping People.”
“We were excited to participate in the spirit of CU Kind Day again this year. Employees, board and supervisory members were encouraged to give back to our community by volunteering or donating to a local agency or event,” said Sandi Carangi, CEO. “In turn, the credit union donated over $2,000 to non-profit organizations throughout the Shenango Valley.”
In the spirit of giving, 20 non-profit organizations benefited from this initiative. Credit union staff volunteers taught financial literacy classes and contributed to organizations such as libraries, performing arts, senior centers, animal charities, and other social services.
This is the second year in a row that the credit union has supported CU Kind Day. A photo collage was created to capture the many areas the staff and volunteers impacted with their time and resources while increasing credit union awareness and spreading kindness.
