MILWAUKEE, Wis.– Corporate Central and The Wisconsin Credit Union League hosted Credit Union Day at the Ballpark, a fundraising event that raised over $15,000 for the Wisconsin CU Foundation and the National CU Foundation.
The collaborative event brought credit union members, families, friends, employees, and supporters together as the Milwaukee Brewers took on the San Francisco Giants at American Family Field in Milwaukee, the organizations said.
“After a long while apart, it was so great to see more than 500 credit union people come together and take part in this event,” said Chris Felton, president/CEO of Corporate Central. “Working together with the wonderful people at The League to host a fundraising event like this is exactly what our movement is all about – people helping people.”
Added Brett Thompson, president/CEO of The League, “Although the Brewers were bested by the Giants, it was truly special to be able to safely gather to see credit union friends and colleagues face-to-face after 17-months and raise funds for a good cause while doing so.”
