Kellogg COmmunity Credit Union Kicks Off Annual Coat Drive
September 25, 2020
Battle Creek, MI - September 25, 2020 - Kellogg Community Credit Union (KCCU) is ready to kick-off its annual coat drive to help the members of the communities in which they serve stay warm this winter. The coat drive will run from October 1st – 31st, and items can be dropped off at any of our branches that are open to serve members. With 2020 causing financial hardship for so many individuals and families, we hope that the KCCU team, members, and the community will come together and show support for this this worthy cause.
KCCU is partnering with Charitable Union (Battle Creek), There’s Enough (Marshall), St. Joseph County United Way (Three Rivers), Salvation Army (Kalamazoo County), and Bethany Christian Services (Grand Rapids), to help provide coats and cold weather gear to those who may need assistance. Both new and gently used coats, hats, mittens, and scarves, that are clean and in good condition, will be accepted by these community partners. They will then distribute the items to local families in need for the upcoming winter season. All sizes are welcome from adults to infants, and everything in-between.
“KCCU will again be collecting coats, hats, and gloves in preparation for winter on behalf of these wonderful charitable organizations. With this year bringing additional challenges with the pandemic, increasing the need for items such as these, we feel that giving back to the community is more important than ever,” stated KCCU’s CEO, Tracy Miller. “At KCCU, we are proud to support and be a part of these local initiatives. All members of the community are welcome to drop-off donations at any of our branch locations throughout West Michigan.”
KCCU’s vision statement includes “providing opportunity and lifelong value to our members and our community.” KCCU takes this statement seriously, and for the past sixteen years they’ve hosted a Coat Drive in partnership with community-based organizations like Charitable Union, There’s Enough, United Way, the Salvation Army, and Bethany Christian Services, as part of their commitment to their vision.
