UK Federal Credit Union announces #TakeCare campaign promoting local acts of kindness

LEXINGTON, KY (October 22, 2020) — The University of Kentucky Federal Credit Union (UKFCU) announces its new #TakeCare campaign. The #TakeCare campaign hopes to inspire members of the community to share positivity and participate in acts of kindness.

Starting the week of October 19th, UKFCU is undertaking acts of kindness in the community. Each week until the end of the year, UKFCU employees will be going to different non-profits in the community and either dropping off needed supplies or volunteering. UKFCU employees are also planning on hosting a company food drive to help support these organizations. Members of the community are encouraged to participate by posting their own positive words or showing their acts of kindness on social media using the hashtag #TakeCare. For a limited time only, UKFCU is offering face masks and buttons with encouraging messages at all six of their branch locations to help spread the message of #TakeCare.

“Now is a critical time to remind others that we care about them and bring as much positivity into our community as possible,” said David Kennedy, President/CEO. “Credit Unions were founded on the principle of people helping people, and we believe it is important to promote physical and mental health and joy within our community. We have been proud to serve the community for over 83 years, and we look forward to growing our relationship with the next generation.”
