DETROIT – Credit Union ONE gave $17,000 to the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute, which will help fund the purchase of a new bladder scanner.
The $730 million credit union has raised $1.2 million for the cancer center over the past 23 years, including $400,000 through its Affinity Card program established in 1995.
Through Credit Union ONE's Affinity Card program, the credit union and Karmanos share income generated by cardholder transactions. Other fundraising monies have come from a new member initiative created by Credit Union ONE several years ago. Credit Union ONE made a pledge of $400,000 in 2005 with its "Building a Cancer Free Future" campaign plus $100,000 for the Nurse Mentorship Hispanic Breast Outreach Program.
