FCCU Hosts Day Of Service

This credit union created a way for staff to work together to demonstrate “Life is Better with Community.” 

​First Community Credit Union is proud to announce their staff recently held their first annual Day of Service. The FCCU Day of Service was created as a way to give staff the opportunity to work together to exemplify FCCU’s brand promise, Life is Better with Community and also their core value of commitment to community.
 
With nearly all of FCCU’s 260 employees volunteering, more than 260 combined staff hours were accumulated during this time. “It was amazing to see all the hard work, local connections, staff engagement and variety of activities across our locations,” said Susan Long Swen, Event & Community Engagement Specialist.
 
There were a variety of clean-up projects at a school, museum, horse arena, post office grounds, other city sites, parks, ball fields and highway ditches in Bismarck, Crookston, Climax, Jamestown, Page, Kindred, Wahpeton, Hankinson, Milnor, Napoleon, Oakes, Portland, Steele, St. John, Valley City, Wishek and Grand Forks – including the Sunshine Home.
 
Additional activities consisted of clean-up of community gardens and flower planting, assembling May Day and hygiene baskets, a nail booth and art project for Jamestown senior center residents, meal prep, baking and cleaning at Fargo’s Ronald McDonald House and time spent volunteering at the Devils Lake Hope Center.

FCCU would like to say thank you to all staff for their involvement and dedication to their local communities!
