Black Hills FCU Supports Local Cancer Center

​Staff dons “Tough Enough to Wear Pink” swag and raises $2,300 from t-shirt sales and Jeans Day for the expansion of the John T. Vucurevich Cancer Institute. 

For the 15th consecutive year, Black Hills Federal Credit Union proudly took part in the “Tough Enough to Wear Pink” project with a donation of $2,300 comprised of t-shirt sales and funds from an employee Jeans Day.

This year’s donation benefits the expansion of the John T. Vucurevich Cancer Institute in Rapid City. BHFCU staff wore their Tough Enough to Wear Pink t-shirts in a show of support for the project, knowing it will touch the lives of those in the region for decades to come.

“We are pleased to support the Tough Enough to Wear Pick Project,” said Carol Brown, vice president of marketing and business development. “Whether it’s having a personal connection to cancer or wanting to support cutting-edge technology and treatment in our home region, we all take pride in contributing to the care provided by the John T. Vucurevich Cancer Institute.”

BHFCU supports community needs through corporate contributions, employee fundraisers and Jeans Day donations, and contributions from members, staff, and community supporters to the Black Hills FCU Charitable Fund, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
