SECU Foundation has provided a $40,000 grant to the Catherine H. Barber Memorial Shelter, a non-profit homeless shelter that has been serving men, women, and children in Wilkes County for over 35 years.
“The services provided by this organization are critical to the individuals and families needing assistance,” said Kim Hollifield, SECU regional senior vice president. “We are happy to provide funding to help the Shelter expand its reach to meet the growing needs in our community.”
“The Catherine H. Barber Memorial Shelter board members and staff would like to extend a sincere ‘thank you’ to SECU Foundation for their recent grant of $40,000,” said Elizabeth Huffman, Catherine H. Barber Memorial Shelter board chair. “The grant will support organizational growth and programmatic expansion created by renovating a new facility. This donation will allow us to continue helping those in need, and we appreciate SECU Foundation and SECU members for giving back to the community!”
