Looking back: 2021 Backpack Giveaway Events

In July and August 2021, 3,400 backpacks were distributed during events at eight of the Credit Union’s member centers across the state and to local charities. The backpacks were filled with school supplies and other local goodies.

September was Give Big Month 2021!

The tradition of Give Big Month continued in 2021. Throughout September, Community Choice team members volunteered both near and far across The Mitten State.
