Fort Community Credit Union | Fort Atkinson Food Pantry Donation
The Jefferson Area Chamber of Commerce recognizes one of our members: Fort Community Credit Union (FCCU ) as they announced a donation of $909.09 to the Fort Atkinson Food Pantry last month, supporting its mission to provide essential food assistance to individuals and families facing hardship.
The donation was raised through FCCU’s new employee charitable giving program, which allows team members to voluntarily contribute a portion of their paychecks to local nonprofit organizations. In its inaugural year, the program supported 11 local organizations selected for their meaningful impact on the well-being of the communities FCCU serves.
“The Fort Atkinson Food Pantry is so grateful to the employees at FCCU for choosing to donate to such a worthy cause,” said Kathy Kalvaitis, grant writer and committee member for the Fort Atkinson Food Pantry. “The past few years have been difficult for all food pantries. There has been an increase in the number of clients we serve and with the increase in food costs and the cut back in government funding it is difficult to make ends meet. So, it is great to know that the Fort Atkinson Food Pantry can count on our community for support. Thank you to the employees at FCCU for taking action to end hunger in our community.”
