The boards of directors for the League of Southeastern Credit Unions, its subsidiary LEVERAGE, and the Southeast Credit Union Foundation each approved a $5,000 donation last week to the OneOrlando Fund.

The $15,000 donation, which was announced during the general opening session of the Southeast Credit Union Conference and Expo, will support the victims and families of the June 12 terrorist shooting at an Orlando nightclub that claimed the lives of 49 people.
