Credit Union VP Makes Great Contributions to Community
June 27, 2013
LOWELL Jeanne DArc Credit Union is pleased to announce that Anne-Marie Bisson, Vice President-Financial Education, has been selected for induction into the Salute to Women program sponsored by The Sun.� Bisson was one of 27 women selected from a group of 300 local leaders who had been nominated for the special recognition in 2013. The award recognizes women who have made "great contributions to the quality of life where we live and work," according to Kendall Wallace, Chairman of the Board at The Sun.
Bisson was selected due to her extraordinary efforts as the founder of Caties Closet, which provides fundamental necessities to children and teens struggling with homelessness and poverty, as well as her work in helping area residents become better prepared for the future through the financial education programs she manages.
"Anne-Marie is known throughout the community for her dedication to helping improve the lives of others. Anne-Marie is there when a little girl needs a winter coat, a teenage boy needs clothes for a job interview, a recent immigrant is learning our financial system, or an elderly resident is figuring out their finances after a spouse passed away," said Mark S. Cochran, President and Chief Executive Officer of Jeanne DArc Credit Union. "Whatever the problem may be, Anne-Marie is always willing to offer assistance. We are very proud of her devotion to the community."
Bisson has been employed at Jeanne DArc Credit Union for 23 years and is a lifelong resident of Lowell.
