FRANKFORT, Ky.– Commonwealth Credit Union has entered into a partnership with Make-A-Wish Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana, saying it is seeking to do its part to better the lives of children and their families.
Commonwealth Credit Union served as the presenting sponsor of this year’s Make-A-Wish Hope is Essential Virtual Gala, and will also be shining as a Star of Hope Sponsor for the Walk for Wishes. The event not only celebrates the children whose wishes have already been granted, but it also serves as a fundraiser to fulfill even more.
“Our partnership with Make-A-Wish works so well because our values closely align. Credit unions are built on the principle of people helping people,” said Commonwealth CU President/CEO, Karen Harbin. “Likewise, Make-A-Wish empowers children, regardless of their diagnosis, to reach for the stars and achieve their dreams. My team and I have the absolute honor of serving as a Wish Hero, doing our part to see every wish fulfilled.”
Just as a wish forever transforms the life of the child and their family, it also touches the community, Community CU said. Building upon this transformation, Commonwealth Credit Union said it plans to begin working on a wonderful community involvement project at their Hamburg Branch in Lexington, Ky. An announcement and unveiling of this very special project will be held in the coming months.
