APGFCU Members Make a Difference
(Aberdeen, March 29, 2007) —
On behalf of its members, Aberdeen Proving Ground Federal
Credit Union proudly presented a $2,200 donation to the Boys
and Girls Clubs of Harford and Cecil Counties. The donation
came as result of the inaugural efforts of the “Dollar
Makes a Difference” program during January and February.
For every donation received, a bright yellow star with the
members’ name was posted, and by the end of the collection
period, APGFCU’s eight branches were covered with stars.
One-hundred percent of the donations collected were given
to Harford and Cecil County’s Boys & Girls Clubs
to fund music equipment, art supplies, computer upgrades,
sports equipment, learning games, and the everyday costs
of staying open for the children of our community.
The program, “A Dollar Makes a Difference,” stems
from the credit union philosophy of ‘people helping
people,’ and the fundamental belief that a dollar truly
can make a difference in the lives of the children who spend
their days at the club. Since 2000, APGFCU itself has donated
over $55,000, and with the launch of this program, will continue
to extend support to the Boys and Girls Clubs.
