Peach State Federal Credit Union’s annual toy drive in support of the Toys for Tots program was a success, the credit union’s foundation says.
Every year, Peach State uses its branch locations as convenient drop-off sites for the toy drive. The mission of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program is to collect new, unwrapped toys and deliver them as holiday gifts to less fortunate children in the community.
“The annual toy drive unites all of us in the holiday spirit by helping families in need and giving back to our communities,” says Peach State’s Chief Administrative Officer and Foundation President Demitra Houlis.
Toys for Tots is one of the many programs Peach State’s C.A.R.E.S. Foundation supports. Local charities, food banks, and school systems also benefit from the foundation’s efforts.
“The Foundation helps bring the credit union philosophy of ‘people helping people’ to life, and we’re proud to support the efforts of Toys for Tots,” says Houlis.
In 2021, Peach State introduced the Peach State FCU C.A.R.E.S. Foundation with the goal of helping neighbors through contributions throughout its service area. Because of the C.A.R.E.S. Foundation, meaningful contributions are made within local communities that positively impact the lives of those who live in them.
