BALTIMORE– The Baltimore Business Journal has recognized MECU Credit Union as one of the top 25 corporate givers in Greater Baltimore for 2018. In total, MECU Credit Union provided $300,000 in financial support to local organizations last year.
MECU Credit Union said it is deeply committed to giving back to the communities it serves, offering paid volunteer time for employees, providing community outreach and supporting over 100 nonprofit agencies throughout Baltimore.
“As Baltimore’s leading not-for-profit credit union, we are passionate about giving back to our local community to improve the quality of life for all residents,” said John Hamilton, president and CEO of MECU Credit Union. “We are honored to be the only credit union recognized this year, and look forward to continuing to focus on education, financial literacy, and the arts.”
Earlier this year, MECU Credit Union committed $200,000 to launch two new Arts Every Day initiatives – the Arts Challenge Fund and MECU Music Ed/Remix – to expand students’ access to arts and music education in Baltimore City Public Schools.
