Glendora, CA, The National Council for Adoption (NCFA) inducted President and CEO of Americas Christian Credit Union (ACCU), Mendell L. Thompson, into the Adoption Hall of Fame at the NCFA Great Expectations Gala in Washington, DC on November 5.
Thompson was recognized for his visionary leadership in spearheading the award-winning Adoption Program that has resulted in nearly 1,300 children finding their forever home. He has also been a strong advocate for additional adoption benefits for credit unions employees, which has earned ACCU a top spot on the 100 Best Adoption-Friendly Workplaces.

Around the world, so many of Gods children are still waiting to find their forever loving family. We will not stop working to advocate for these children."
