COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.– Thanks to the efforts of employees and members, Ent Credit Union raised $45,000 for the Springs Rescue Mission during their summer philanthropy campaign.
During Ent’s two-month fundraising campaign, employees organized a car wash, barbecue lunch, contests, jeans days and bake sales in support of Springs Rescue Mission’s downtown Colorado Springs campus expansion.
The first phase of Springs Rescue Mission’s campus expansion has enabled them to extend their services, providing consistent assistance every day of the week in the form of: two shelters housing 32 women and 168 men throughout the year; a resource center with 16 public showers and computer stations for job searches and applications; and kitchen services serving hundreds of meals (breakfast and dinner) to the public.
