Credit Union provides a Holiday Event to remember at local school
Indiana Members Credit Union (IMCU) of Indianapolis, Central Indianas largest credit union, prepared a special holiday event for a local school in its community.
IMCU hosted a holiday celebration at IPS School 44, Riverside Elementary, in Indianapolis, where they distributed handmade winter scarves and toys to over 500 students and turkey dinners to all faculty and staff on Thursday, December 20, 2012.
IMCU has partnered with IPS School #44 during 2012 and has already collected and donated, through numerous drives, items for their food pantry, socks, gloves, under garments and school supplies, all necessary items for the students to be successful at school, but wanted to do more this holiday season.
"IMCU wanted to provide IPS School #44 with a special holiday celebration that included items not only for the students but also for all the faculty and staff," stated Ron Collier, CEO of IMCU.�� "We gathered items for a turkey dinner gift basket which were given to each and every staff member.� IMCU employees also donated money to purchase materials to make scarves for the kids at 44, in lieu of having an internal gift exchange.� Employees at our Southside location took an afternoon to cut out the fleece material to make over 500 scarves for the students.� In addition, each student was provided with a toy from IMCU in conjunction with the Indiana Pacers and JAKKS Pacific, INC, from their Christmas in July program."
