Credit Union ONE has record turnout for Walk

Credit Union ONE Walkers get ready to Step Out to Stop

Diabetes at the Detroit Zoo

Ferndale, Michigan – For the 2nd year, Credit Union ONE employees, along with friends and family gave back to the community and participated in the Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes event, held at the Detroit Zoo on Saturday, September 15th.

White Credit Union ONE hats could be seen virtually everywhere, as the credit union set a new record with approximately 150 walkers participating this year. This year over $4,200 in donations from combined corporate and individual giving were raised by the credit union. Not only was it a fundraising participation record for Credit Union ONE, but according to a source from the Walk, it was also the largest group participating in the Detroit Walk.

According to Swami Seetharaman, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer for Credit Union ONE, “The walk was a good opportunity for us to participate in a cause that touches all of us in one way or another. Being able to contribute to an organization such as the American Diabetes Association allows us to support our life science partners in the community. We were surprised by the number of walkers we had, and are truly proud of the Team.”

One of many StepOut Walks throughout the country, the Walk held in Detroit had a goal this year of $500,000. With over 3,000 walkers and volunteers, they have already raised over $450,000 with several commitments expected, and are confident they will reach their goal by the end of the campaign. Over .84 cents of each dollar raised goes directly into research and programs to help the over 25 million people in the USA with this illness.
