MECHANICSBURG, Penn.–AmeriChoice FCU is preparing to unveil some new additions at two of its branches: tiny homes.
In partnership with Veterans Outreach of Pennsylvania (VOPA), the credit union said it will be featuring the tiny homes at its main branch and its Sporting Green branch.
VOPA is currently working to build Veterans Grove, a village of 15 tiny homes and a community center for veterans experiencing homelessness.
According to the credit union, the special event will start off on March 13 at its main branch at 2175 Bumble Bee Hollow Rd. in Mechanicsburg, where from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. tours of the tiny home will be open to the public. Following that, the tiny home will be transported to our Sporting Green branch at 20 Sporting Green Drive in Mechanicsburg, where it will be on display from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Donations Encouraged
“Visitors are also encouraged to donate first aid and sanitizing items such as peroxide, Band-Aids, neosporin, ice packs, biofreeze, gauze, first aid tape, hand soap, hand sanitizer, masks, and nitrile gloves to benefit veterans when they visit,” AmeriChoice FCU said.
AmeriChoice said the tiny home event is part of a larger effort to support the efforts and mission of VOPA. The credit union noted it has already pledged ongoing financial donations to the non-profit organization. Marking its second financial installment supporting VOPA’s programs during the March 13 event, AmeriChoice has also announced its new role as the Multipurpose Room Sponsor for VOPA’s Veterans Grove.
‘Positive Impact’
“By supporting this initiative, we aim to make a positive impact on the lives of veterans in need,” said AmeriChoice President and CEO Ken Dyer. “We encourage our members, friends, and neighbors to get involved in this essential work by taking part in this event, donating toiletries, and even sponsoring a brick as a way to support Veterans Outreach and the amazing work they do for those who have served our country.”
