Credit Union ONE gives back during the holiday season

Ferndale, Michigan – This holiday season, Credit Union ONE’s members and staff generously gave back to the community through donations to Forgotten Harvest and the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program.

Michael Jarnel, Jerome Oswald, and Anthony Jackson of
the U.S. Marine Corps joined John Kozich (third from left),

Relations, to collect the donated toys. 

Throughout December, each of the credit union’s branches collected donations for the Toys for Tots Program. This year, the collection included more than 1,000 toys, which were picked up by local Marines for distribution to Metro Detroit children.

Additionally, Credit Union ONE hosted a canned food drive benefiting Forgotten Harvest and their mission to end hunger. In total, more than 1,500 pounds of food was collected and the credit union also donated $500 to help those in need.

Being involved in worthy causes that provide support and a helping hand to those in need is part of our culture,” said Gary Moody, President and CEO of Credit Union ONE. “Engaging our employees and members validates the cooperative philosophy upon which we operate.
