By Rosalind Russell – The Northern Credit Union is committed to strengthening the local communities where they operate branches including Espanola and Elliot Lake.
Spokesperson Jessie Wright says the institution has distributed $56,400 through its annual Giving for Good initiative, involving all 25 branches, contact center, and corporate office.
She says the three local organizations that will receive funding is the Algoma Manor Nursing home in Thessalon, the Centennial Arena Fund in Elliot Lake and the Espanola Pond Hockey Association.
Wright says every year, employees chose charities that aligned with at least one of their priority areas of impact to combat pressing issues and foster long-term resilience across Northern Ontario.
