Credit Union Helps Homeless with Blanket Drive

Hanscom AFB, Mass. Hanscom FCU proudly continued its support of the Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless with another successful blanket drive.

In January, Hanscom FCU donated 35 blankets to the drive sponsored by the Massachusetts Credit Union League. The blankets will be distributed to homeless families by the Coalition. "The Coalition works tirelessly to address an issue that is close to home for Hanscom FCU and its members," said Hanscom FCU Chairman of the Board Paul Marotta. "Blankets are just one simple but important example, and we will continue to provide support any way we can." The Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless is the countrys oldest statewide homeless advocacy organization. Hanscom Federal Credit Union, headquartered at Hanscom Air Force Base, Mass., serves 52,049 members across the country and overseas through 16 branches, over 100,000 service centers and surcharge-free ATMs, 24-hour telephone service and a web-based branch. The credit union holds $1 billion in assets.
