In advancement of the credit union vision of “People helping People,” LAFCU presented a check for nearly $20,400 to the Capital Area United Way at year-end 2017. The funds included proceeds from multiple employee fundraising activities throughout the year, employee pledges and a corporate contribution.
Fundraising activities coordinated by an employee committee included dress down days, online and live auctions, raffles, 50/50 drawings and a trip to FireKeepers Casino.
“‘What better way to honor our vision of ‘People helping People” than by our people generously donating their time, energy and funds to organizations that provide critical services to others in our community,” said Patrick Spyke, LAFCU CEO.
