SANTA ROSA, Calif.–Redwood Credit Union (RCU) employees contributed over $45,000 to local nonprofits by sponsoring, fundraising, and participating in Human Race events in Sonoma, Marin, and Mendocino Counties. More than 100 volunteers, including employees, family, and friends, walked or ran in the Sonoma and Mendocino County races, while RCU’s Marin and Napa county branch locations raised funds for local nonprofits through the Bay Area Human Race. The Human Race events are put on by the local volunteer centers in each county.
“RCU supports numerous fundraising events throughout the year, but the Human Race is special in that it allows our staff to raise funds for whichever nonprofit they are truly passionate about,” said Mishel Kaufman, senior vice president of risk management and team captain for RCU’s Human Race efforts. “There is such strong support throughout the community for the Human Race and we’re always excited to be a part of that.”
