CUs Support Troops

Credit unions have placed orders for more than 300,000 "Operation: Helping Hand" brochures within one week of The National Association of Federal Credit Union's launching the initiative designed to raise money for the Armed Services Relief Agency and other groups supporting the nation's troops and their families.

NAFCU is asking credit unions across the country to include the "Operation: Helping Hand" brochure in one or more statement mailings over the next three months, and the trade association will donate all non-administrative proceeds from these brochures to the relief agencies.

The brochures outline how credit unions are helping the nation's troups and how members can also get involved and help provide aid to U.S. military personnel and their families during the war against Iraq.
