Humanitarian Highlight 11.21.24
When it comes to supporting local development, credit unions go above and beyond. They’re better than banks because they build stronger, kinder communities. Each initiative they support or create brings people together, uplifts neighbors, and makes a positive impact. Let’s look at how credit unions are contributing to local growth and development in this week’s #HumanitarianHighlight.
Priority Trust Credit Union
Priority Trust Credit Union recently hosted their 20th Annual Golf Tournament, bringing people together to support local charities. With enthusiastic sponsors, players, and volunteers, the event raised funds that directly benefit the community. Priority Trust shows how dedication and teamwork can make a lasting impact.

Vermilion Credit Union engaged with future leaders by speaking to first-year Ag Business students at Lakeland College. Alumni Celina Savic and Halle Leslie shared valuable lessons and career insights. Their connection with students reflects Vermilion’s passion for empowering local youth and investing in education.
Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union
Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union brought smiles to Merrimack Valley by donating $1,500 to Connor’s Kindness Project. This donation was part of their Give-A-Click program, where community members vote for local causes. Jeanne D’Arc continues to bring the community together by supporting local development.
First Entertainment Credit Union
First Entertainment Credit Union made a donation of $2,000 to Young Storytellers, inspiring young creatives to pursue storytelling. They also joined the Warner Brothers Discovery Fit Nation 5k to raise even more. First Entertainment’s support empowers youth and promotes creativity.
