Ferndale, Michigan – Where can you go on a nice fall day, have a great time with friends, and donate to a very worthy cause at the same time? Credit Union ONE employees, along with friends and family found the place to be was the Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes event, held at the Detroit Zoo on Saturday, September 17th.
The Credit Union ONE Team, comprised of 23 walkers contributed close to $2,000.
According to Swami Seetharaman, SVP of Marketing 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.”
One of many StepOut Walks throughout the country, the Walk held in Detroit had a goal this year of $400,000. With over 3,200 walkers and volunteers, they have already raised over $320,000 with several commitments expected, and are confident they will reach their goal by the end of the campaign.
Credit Union ONE, headquartered in Ferndale Michigan for over seventy years, offers a wide array of financial services and access to over 28,000 ATM’s nationwide, serving 106,000 members, with nineteen offices in three major metropolitan areas, including Metro Detroit, Grand Rapids and Traverse City.
