JOLIET, Ill. – Employees At NuMark CU were urged to invest in their local community by spending cash at the locally-owned business of their choice.
In all, 55 locally-owned businesses were chosen under the credit union’s Community Give Back Program. Each business received a card that said “we purchased your services today with money provided from our employer, NuMark Credit Union. This special program is designed to help support locally-owned businesses like yours. Like us, we know you are invested in the community, and we want to reach out and show our support.”
Some staff members chose places they were already familiar with and loved. Some asked for referrals from friends or family and others sought out a local business.
