HARRISBURG, Penn.–PSECU has announced the winner of its third annual month-long PSECU Gives Back initiative, which is popular vote-based community donation campaign. Selecting from four potential nonprofit organization beneficiaries, PSECU members and non-members alike took to Facebook to select this year’s winner: Keystone Human Services’ Susquehanna Service Dogs.
As the winner of the PSECU Gives Back campaign, Susquehanna Services Dogs will receive a $2,200 donation from the credit union to support its mission.
“Eight-five years ago, our founders started PSECU with the goal of helping themselves and others achieve a better life through shared financial opportunity, and today we strive to follow that community betterment-based legacy in everything we do,” explained PSECU President and CEO George Rudolph. “The PSECU Gives Back contribution total of $2,200 is a nod to our 22 founders who started our ‘gives back’ legacy. We thank everyone who took the time to cast a vote and help decide which of the four outstanding nonprofit organizations should receive extra funding.”
The remaining three 2019 PSECU Gives Back participating nonprofits – Feeding Pennsylvania, PA Breast Cancer Coalition, and Special Olympics Pennsylvania – will also each be awarded $500 to support the outstanding services they provide to communities across the commonwealth.
“PSECU Gives Back is just one aspect of PSECU's strong, ongoing commitment to community betterment. Our year-round charitable sponsorships and corporate donations, financial education programming and resources, and employee volunteerism supported by the credit union's more than 900 employees, all play an important role,” said Margaret Delmonico, PSECU Director of Public Relations.
Throughout October, the third annual PSECU Gives Back campaign reached a total of 83,405 people.
