Garden Savings Federal Credit Union raises $22,000 for charities at 10th Annual Golf Outing

PARSIPPANY, NJ (September 6, 2022) — Garden Savings Federal Credit Union, headquartered in Parsippany, New Jersey with branches in Newark, Dover and South Orange, raised $22,000 for two local charitable groups at its 10th Annual Golf Outing this past August 30th. The outing was attended by nearly one hundred credit union professionals and industry business leaders. The proceeds will be divided between The Children’s Specialized Hospital of New Brunswick (CU4 Kids) and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Coastal & Northern New Jersey (BBBS).
“Helping organizations such as these is truly what we are all about,” said Garden Savings FCU’s President and CEO, Lou Vetere. “Credit unions are formed on the premise of people helping people and we believe that this outing embodies that philosophy to a tee. It is our pleasure to support such altruistic groups.”
The credit union’s incoming President and CEO upon Vetere’s retirement at the end of the year, Michael Powers, added, “This was our tenth annual golf outing and I can promise to these groups and to our members that there will be many more to come. Nothing is more rewarding than helping others and we remain committed to assisting them, and others, as often as possibly can.”
Garden Savings is a $414 million dollar full service financial institution that serves the financial needs of over 25,000 members throughout New Jersey and the tristate area.
