Credit Unions for Kids, the industry's fundraising vehicle benefitting Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, is projecting that credit unions will have raised $225,000 through their participation in September's Miracle Jeans Day.

Many of the participating credit unions applied for matching funds through the CO-OP Miracle Match program from CO-OP Financial Services, which could bring the credit union industry's total contribution to Miracle Jeans Day 2012 to a higher figure by year's end.

Credit unions continue to be the largest group supporting the initiative in the entire CMN Hospitals network of donors. In 2012, credit unions will account for about 30% of all funds raised through Miracle Jeans Day. The largest fundraising area is Los Angeles and Orange counties in Southern California, but all 50 states were represented among participating credit unions.
