LACAMAS COMMUNITY CREDIT UNION GIVES HOLIDAY DINNER BASKETS TO MEMBERS

December 22, 2008— Lacamas Community Credit Union (LCCU) initiated a Holiday Dinner Basket giveaway to benefit its members in need during this holiday season. The Credit Union allowed members to nominate fellow member families in need and distributed baskets that contained non-perishable foods, such as stuffing mix, gravy and cranberry sauce, for a festive holiday dinner. The dinner baskets also included gift cards to purchase fresh grocery items and a $25 gas card.

“It is traditional that we make a contribution to one of our Community Partnership groups in December, and this year we felt compelled to also give back to our members in need,” said Kathleen Romane, President/CEO. “We care about our members and know that this economy is taking a toll on many people. We feel that it is important for families to be able to enjoy a nice holiday dinner,” she said.

The Credit Union plans to make its holiday dinner basket program an annual event, Romane added.
