SALT LAKE CITY—On Wednesday, Sept. 13, staff at credit unions across the country will be dressing down to show their support for sick kids in their area.
The annual Credit Unions for Kids Miracle Jeans Day event encourages credit union employees to donate $5 for the opportunity to wear jeans to work that day.
Credit Unions for Kids said that credit unions can order free paper icons and stickers so their members can participate as well. Proceeds are donated the credit union’s local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital.
Credit unions can register to participate at cu4kids.org/mjd.
According to Credit Unions for Kids, in 2016 more than 300 credit unions “went casual for kids,” raising thousands of dollars for their local CMN Hospitals. More than 100 credit unions from 40 states have already pledged their support for the 2017 Miracle Jeans Day event.
