Credit Unions for Kids: How Community Donations Make a Big Local Impact | APOTFYT

How can something as simple as using your debit card make a real difference for local kids? In this episode of A Penny or Two for Your Thoughts, hosts Chantel Windeshausen and Liz Malmberg sit down with Diane Cruz, assistant vice president, retail financial services at Centris Federal Credit Union, and Jane Phillips, director of development at Children’s Nebraska Foundation to talk about Credit Unions for Kids, benefiting Children’s Miracle Network, and how Centris members can help support children and families right here in Nebraska.  They discuss how local fundraising supports programs like child life services, pet therapy, the Rainbow House, and new hospital innovation projects. They also share the story of Ryker, a Children’s Miracle Network Champion, and explain why community giving through credit unions creates such a powerful local impact.  Learn more about Centris at centrisfcu.org or connect with Children’s Nebraska Foundation at https://www.childrensnebraska.org/give to support their mission.
