In its first donation of 2022, Credit Union West employees gifted $5,247 to Maggie’s Place, a nonprofit that helps pregnant women facing homelessness.
Maggie’s Place was chosen by Credit Union West employees because of its work in providing safe housing, life skills classes, and counseling for pregnant women in need.
Since its founding in 2000, Maggie’s Place has served more than 1,000 mothers and infants in the Phoenix area.
Credit Union West leaders presented Emily Fankhauser, director of family services at Maggie’s Place, with the donation check in April at their Corporate Center at 10150 W. Desert River Blvd., in Glendale.
The donation was made possible by Credit Union West employees who funded the EmployeesCARE Program, which raises money for a nonprofit selected by employees each quarter. In addition, President and CEO Karen Roch challenged Credit Union West employees to increase giving by matching the donation with her own personal funds.
This is the first charitable donation that Credit Union West employees have made through the EmployeesCARE Program in 2022. Last year, employees donated more than $18,000 to local organizations and hope to raise even more this year.
