United Federal CU Helps Deliver Gifts to Over 100 Children in Need
December 17, 2019
United was founded in 1949 by people just like you who believed in the values of the community and who believed in service to one another. We’ve been serving Members ever since, growing into who we are today with the knowledge that strength in numbers brings opportunities and prosperity to all of us.
HENDERSONVILLE, NC. – United Federal Credit Union (United) employees partnered with The Storehouse to purchase and deliver gifts to over 100 children in need in Henderson County, North Carolina, as part of the Blessings in Boxes community initiative.
The Storehouse is a non-profit organization based in Hendersonville, that provides food and hygiene products to people with limited financial resources and, often, limited life skills. Its annual Blessings in Boxes program provides clothing and toys to children as well as coats, hats, gloves and blankets to anyone in need during the holiday season.
In November, United announced it would be partnering with The Storehouse again in support of the 2019 Blessings in Boxes program, donating over $10,000 to help purchase gifts.
In 2019, the Blessings in Boxes program served 2,178 children. For more information on The Storehouse and how you can get involved through donations or volunteering in the future for this initiative, please click on the link below.
