Glendora, CA, June 21, 2016 America"s Christian Credit Union (ACCU) has launched a clothing drive to benefit one of its key charitable partners, Shepherd"s Pantry of Glendora. Response from members and guests has been strong since the start of the drive, which kicked off on June 7. Already, bins have been filled to overflowing several times.
Shepherd"s Pantry has been providing valuable goods and services to the underserved and impoverished residents of Glendora and neighboring communities since 2004. Known chiefly as a food bank, this flourishing non-profit also provides clothing and other services to its needy and grateful constituents.
"We value our partnership with Shepherd"s Pantry, and applaud their continued good works for those in the community," said Mendell Thompson, ACCU"s President/CEO. "We are happy to conduct this clothing drive and help them distribute clothing to the individuals and families that they serve."
ACCU invites local residents to use this opportunity to drop off clothing and shoes at one of their branch locations as a way of serving others in the community. Collection bins are positioned in the Reception areas of ACCU"s branches in Glendora and Azusa. The drive is slated to continue through the month and conclude on Friday, July 1.
