Community Resource’s employees raise $4,600 for Mohawk Hudson Humane Society

LATHAM, NY (December 30, 2013) — Community Resource Federal Credit Union’s employees presented the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society with a check for $4,600 on Monday, December 30, 2013 at the Credit Union’s 20 Wade Road, Latham office.  The employees raised the funds through events such as a bake sale, Haunted Asylum, donor card sale, calendar raffle, and Pet Photos with Santa.

“The Mohawk Hudson Humane Society does not receive government funding. So, donations like ours are very important because the shelter needs financial support from individuals and businesses in order to stay in business,” said Wendy Meola, Director of Marketing at Community Resource Federal Credit Union.

Community Resource’s employees also held an annual bottle drive on May 18 during which 8,000 bottles were collected for the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society. In 2013, the shelter raised $100,000 from bottle redemption.

Community Resource Federal Credit Union is a community credit union serving those who live, work, worship, or attend school in Albany County and their families.  Community Resource provides friendly service, outstanding rates, and low fees on a full range of financial products.  Community Resource has $70 million in assets and 6,500 members.
