Fort Community Credit Union | Jefferson County Literacy Council Donation
The Jefferson Area Chamber of Commerce recognizes one of our members, Fort Community Credit Union (FCCU ) as they have recently announced a donation of $909.09 to the Jefferson County Literacy Council, supporting its mission to improve adult literacy and empower lifelong learning throughout the community.
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 wellbeing of the communities FCCU serves.
“We appreciate the community-based financial literacy courses and resources that FCCU provides that directly support our mission,” said Pamela Waters, Executive Director of JCLC. “This contribution will allow JCLC to continue offering adult learning opportunities for English language instruction, citizenship and preparation for GED/HSED. We are truly grateful and honored to be the stewards of this gift!"
FCCU’s employee giving program reflects the credit union’s cooperative values and its commitment to empowering team members to make a direct impact in their own communities. By combining employee contributions with FCCU’s support, the program amplifies the reach of local nonprofits that are addressing important community needs.
