CUs Support Community Members Battling Hunger, Financial Hardship

North Island CU

The $1.2 billion North Island Credit Union in San Diego and Support the Enlisted Project (STEP) recently brought the holiday spirit to more than 56 military families in need through STEP’s annual Sharing the Joy program.

STEP distributed more than 300 toys, diapers, food boxes and household items to young military and transitioning veteran families facing financial hardship at its holiday Warehouse on Wheels event. As a program partner, all 11 North Island branches in the greater San Diego area served as collection points for new, unwrapped toys, which were distributed during the event. STEP is a San Diego-based organization that helps junior enlisted service members.
