From supporting fundraising initiatives to event sponsorships, a big part of our mission is to give back to the communities that have welcomed us.
A mountainous backdrop and beautiful tree-lined fairways set the stage for the Global Credit Union Foundation Fairway Friends Golf Tournament at the Anchorage Golf Course.
The July 16 event brought business partners and golfers of every level to raise money for Girl Scouts of Alaska and Operation Homefront. By the end of the day, $60,000 was raised to help these nonprofits continue their work in the community.
Our annual golf tournament is a great way to help raise money for these vital charities while also having a lot of fun.
“I’d like to extend a special thanks to the credit union’s business partners and our employee volunteers. Their support is critical to our success, and I’m always moved by how enthusiastic they are to help us, year after year,” says Geoff Lundfelt, President of the Global Credit Union Foundation.
$30,000 was given to the Girl Scouts of Alaska, whose mission is to help girls create the world they want to live in and strive to make it better every single day. They explore their strengths, take on new challenges, and can always be themselves, regardless of background or ability.
$30,000 went to Operation Homefront in support of their mission to build strong, stable, and secure military families so they can thrive, not simply struggle to get by, in the communities—OUR communities—they have worked so hard to protect.
