Heritage Federal Credit Union employees volunteered their individual time and talents during 2009 to these 65 outstanding organizations without receiving compensation. In fact, credit union employees donated well over 1,428 hours to their communities last year. Also, the credit union family expanded to the employee’s families and friends who were welcome to volunteer their time and talents alongside the employee. Credit unions were founded on the “People Helping People” philosophy and this philosophy was once again evident in Heritage Federal Credit Union employees. Special thanks to all of the employees, their families and friends that volunteered their personal time to support our communities’ efforts.
