Neches FCU raises $3,500 for Wounded Warrior Family Foundation.
Neches Federal Credit Union announced that they raised $3,500 on Veterans Day, Nov. 11, that will go to support the Wounded Warrior Family Foundation. The funds were raised by way of a 5K, seven-mile bike ride, and one-mile walk/run that the credit union hosted in celebration of veterans.
The 5K event was promoted and hosted internally by Neches FCU, and employees were encouraged to ride their bike, walk or run. Donations contributed by the Neches FCU team were matched by the credit union.
Over 200 participants from Neches FCU participated in the virtual event and were encouraged to post their pictures on Neches FCU’s Facebook page using the hashtag #NechesWalksForVets.
“We are extremely proud of this annual event and salute those who have served and sacrificed to protect our country,” said Jason Landry, President/CEO of Neches FCU.
