Nearly $1,000 worth of toys were donated by Members CU members and employees to Critical Children at Christmas (CCC), a non-profit organization directed by Members CU member, Johnnie Pruitt.
CCC collects and delivers toys to children admitted to Brenner Children's Hospital in Winston-Salem, NC. Pruitt, one of Santa's many helpers, delivered the toys door-to-door to the children's hospital dressed as Old Saint Nick on December 15th. In addition to collecting toys, Members CU raised over $290 to help purchase additional gifts for Brenner Children's Hospital through fundraising events at the credit union's Thomasville, NC and North Winston-Salem, NC Branches. During these events, patrons were invited to take a picture with Santa Claus in exchange for a new unwrapped toy or $5 donation. All proceeds from these events benefited Brenner Children's Hospital.
