Dallas, TX: As they have for 25 years in a row, Neighborhood Credit Union presented a donation to Children’s Health^sm. 

On Thursday, February 4, 2021, Neighborhood Credit Union donated a check of $25,000 to the Children’s Medical Center Foundation. Due to COVID-19 safety precautions, the presentation took place outside with a bird's eye view of the Children’s Medical Center Dallas.   

The money was raised from two different programs the credit union offered during the 2020 holiday season.   
Kicking off the fundraising efforts in October, Neighborhood CU sponsored and partnered with Children’s Medical Center Foundation for the BOO Yard Sign Challenge. With a $20 donation, anyone in the community could purchase a BOO yard sign to secretly place in friends' or neighbors' yards through the Halloween season, encouraging others to do the same.  

In November and December, Neighborhood Credit Union allows its qualifying members to participate in the Skip a Payment program. Members can choose to skip a monthly loan payment in exchange for a small donation to the Children’s Medical Center Foundation. 

 
“We are grateful to all of the members of Neighborhood Credit Union,” says Kendall Rowden, Development Officer, Corporate Partnerships Children’s Medical Center Foundation. “Your donation will help make life better for children.”  

This donation will go towards continuing to create a fun and unique environment that allows patients to continue being children while they are visiting the hospital. 

As an active part of the community for 90 years, Neighborhood Credit Union is a not-for-profit financial organization with locations in Collin, Dallas, Denton, and Ellis counties, as well as the city of Arlington. Located all across North Texas and assets topping $927 million, Neighborhood Credit Union has a continuously growing membership of 56,000.
