Thank You for Paying It Forward! Throughout the past year we’ve been asking, “If we gave you $10…what would you do for someone else?” For the answers, we gave individuals $10—free with the assignment to Pay it Forward.
973 participants strong, we’ve put over $12,500 into our communities. We supported everything from non-profit organizations and schools to neighbors and strangers. We stretched the money across the world—from Honduras, Ukraine and Afghanistan to Mexico, Haiti and Darfur. It’s amazing to see how our participants made such an impact with just $10.
Take a minute to look through the hundreds of video pledges and be inspired to pay it forward yourself.
People helping people. That’s the credit union difference.
