Hanscom AFB, Mass. Hanscom FCU recently presented a $1,500 donation to the Natick Soldiers Systems Center Civilian Welfare Fund. The funds, provided by the Armed Forces Financial Network, match the Board Memorial Award presented to the group by the credit union last fall.

"We are proud of our association with AFFN," said Chairman of the Board Paul Marotta. "They have been stalwart in their support of our work in providing our members with cost-effective and convenient access to their money. The Civilian Welfare Fund provides a vital service, and we are grateful to AFFN for allowing our gift to multiply."
