At the same time, Mattawan Community Food Bank, which the credit union helped organize, was on hand to provide bags of groceries to 68 local families. On the same day, local Girl Scout troops took part in the United Way’s Stuff the Bus campaign, cramming a school bus full of food for the food bank.
“Our credit union has been heavily involved in these events but the great thing is it has grown to the point that now the whole community is involved in serving struggling families,” said Access First’s Mike Hartwigsen.
