Greater Nevada Credit Union Employees Deliver For the Holidays

(Carson City, Nevada) January 6, 2017—When Greater Nevada President/CEO Wally Murray sent out a company-wide December holiday challenge, employees were all in. By the end of the month, Greater Nevada employees had contributed 728.75 hours of community service hours in December alone, and more than 2,800 hours for the year.

“I had no doubt that our employees would deliver,” said Murray. “Greater Nevada has a long history of community involvement, and for many years we‘ve provided paid time off for employees to volunteer at local non-profit organizations that serve our region. It’s a benefit that helps everyone live greater!”

For the month of December 2016, employees of Greater Nevada Credit Union and its subsidiary company, Greater Nevada Mortgage, were given two hours of paid time off for volunteering as part of the Greater Community Service Challenge. That included fundraising efforts such as bell ringing for the Salvation Army; collecting donations for the Humane Society, The Food Bank of Northern Nevada, and Carson Valley Food Closet; and wrapping donated toys for the Carson City Sheriff’s Office holiday program.
