salvationarmydonationPORTSMOUTH, N.H. - Service Credit Union donated 155 food gift certificates to the Rochester Salvation Army recently. The contribution comes just in time for the Christmas holiday season for needy families in the Rochester area. Rochester Salvation Army officials reached out directly to Service Credit Union to save their gift basket initiative during this season. They cited lower than usual donations during their bell ringing campaign and less volunteers. Service Credit Unions Vice President of Member Services Daniel Clarke and Assistant Vice President of Member Services Matt Beaulieu were on hand to present the contribution along with Rochester branch managers Candace Rowell and Dawn Whiteside. "Service Credit Union has been serving New Hampshire for more than 55 years and we were eager to roll up our sleeves and support the Rochester community during this time of need," says Gordon Simmons, President/CEO of Service Credit Union. "We realize that times are tough for many individuals and we want to do our part to support the communities where we do business and help the families who live in them. We take pride in making sure families can provide during the holidays." Service Credit Union is a full service financial institution with nearly 180,000 members worldwide, offering a wide range of financial products to its members.� With 41 branch locations including two staffed 24/7 contact centers, and full internet banking services, Service Credit Union serves anyone who lives or works in New Hampshire (excluding Coos County), 4 towns in Cape Cod, MA., and all branches of the U.S. Military and Department of Defense employees and their families.
