On Friday, August 16, Gulf Winds Credit Union sponsored Cat Country’s 2024 Radiothon in partnership with the Ascension Sacred Heart Foundation. Gulf Winds donated $20,000 to the event, supporting the Studer Family Children’s Hospital, the only Children’s Miracle Network affiliate serving the Pensacola region.
Since 2013, Gulf Winds has donated more than $184,000 to Sacred Heart’s Foundation and the children’s hospital, including this year’s gift of $20,000.
This year’s donation will support the purchase of Angel Eye Cameras for the hospital’s 62-bed Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. These cameras let families watch over their babies 24/7 via a secure account, giving them peace of mind as they never have to miss a memory.
“Our children are shaping tomorrow,” said Daniel Souers, President and CEO of Gulf Winds Credit Union. “We are committed to supporting the Ascension Sacred Heart Foundation and the Studer Family Children’s Hospital to create positive and lasting change. The Studer Family Children’s Hospital is our region’s only children’s hospital. We are proud to give back to ensure world-class care and treatment for the kids and families we know, through donations, sponsorships, and volunteer support.”
Support from Gulf Winds and other community partners makes it possible for all families to have unprecedented access to expert care.
“We are grateful for the continued support and partnership of Gulf Winds Credit Union,” said Adrienne Maygarden, President, Ascension Sacred Heart Foundation. “Their generosity impacts nearly every child and every family in our community helping ensure the highest level of care, close to home.”
