LATHAM, N.Y. – The New York Credit Union Foundation extended to December 31 the deadline for applications for assistance from the Foundation's 9-11 Disaster Relief Fund. Individuals who lost a family member in the 9-11 disaster who belonged to a credit union, including individuals in the planes that were flown into the World Trade Center twin towers, the Pentagon, or the one that went down in Pennsylvania, can apply for a $1,000 payment from the Fund until the end of the year. The Disaster Relief Fund raised over $1.3 million. The New York State Credit Union League posted a "thank you" video on its Web site – www.nyscul.org – dedicated to those who helped raise donations. Grant applications are available on the Web site as well.
