The staff and management of the $897 million, 83,000-member Commonwealth Credit Union in Frankfort, Ky., has responded to devastating tornadoes that struck the state in March by raising funds to help those who had been hurt.
The credit union’s board donated $10,000 to the American Red Cross for tornado relief services and its staff raised thousands of dollars by sponsoring “Dress Down Days” and bringing in needed supplies, Commonwealth CU said.
Donations included $452 to the Morgan County Board of Education, $378 to Project Prom at Morgan County High School, $1,563 to the Christian Appalachian Project and supplies donated to the Kentucky State Police’s own drive and to the Morgan County and Magoffin counties boards of education.
