Community Financial to donate $30,000 to local charities with the help of their community members
PLYMOUTH, Mich. – Community Financial Credit Union is announcing the
return of their special Warming Hearts & Homes charitable program for the
2013 holiday season. Throughout December,
Community Financial is donating up to $30,000 to local nonprofit organizations instrumental
in providing heat, food and clothing for families in their communities.
According to Sarah
Cousineau, Marketing Manager at Community Financial, “We will donate up to
$10,000 each week to charitable organizations. The best part about this
campaign is that you just have to use your computer or smart phone, and we do
all the donating!”
There are three ways to contribute to Community
Financial’s Warming Hearts & Homes program. Participants can visit the
credit union’s Facebook Page at https://www.facebook.com/CommunityFinancial.
For every new Like on the timeline, Community Financial will donate $25 to the
active charity of the week. Participants can also use #CFCUwarms in a tweet to
Community Financial. Every tweet using that hashtag will ensure $25 more to
each charity. Lastly, Community Financial is donating another $25 for each text
they receive. Participants can text CFCUwarms to 70 000.
“The charity receiving donations will change from week to
week,” Cousineau said. “It’s important to stay active the entire month of
December to ensure each charity gets to the $10,000 limit.”
From December 1 - 7, funds raised will be given to The
Heat and Warmth Fund (THAW). THAW helps cover the cost of home heating for
families who can’t meet these bills. During Week 2 from December 8-14,
Community Financial will contribute to local food pantries. For Week 3, ending
on December 21, Community Financial will donate to The Salvation Army’s “Coats
for Kids” program.
Community Financial invites everyone to participate,
members and non-members, in this year’s Warming Hearts & Homes campaign. Participation from the community means needed
funds will be donated to help warm hearts and homes in the area.
