Elevations Credit Union: Prosperous Together
Inaugural Prosperity Month Contributes 1,490 Volunteer Hours
Volunteering is part of Elevation Credit Union’s DNA. As part of each employee’s benefits, they are allotted 16 hours of volunteer time off each year. With over 600 employees on staff, that adds up to the potential to make a huge impact in our community!
In efforts to amplify the notion of giving back to the communities in which they live, this year Elevations Credit Union launch their first ever Prosperity Month. The goal was to bring together both employees and members of Elevations Credit Union to work side-by-side and donate 1,000 volunteer hours to local organizations during the month of June. After all was said and done, they blew their goal out of the water!
Elevations Prosperity Month resulted in 1,490 volunteer hours to local nonprofits along the Front Range by a total of 225 participants – including 149 Elevations employees and 76 Elevations members. Together they rolled up their sleeves and completed a variety of projects that had them painting old barns, sanding fish tanks, pulling weeds and much more. The benefitting organizations included:
“We are proud to have exceeded our goal of 1,000 volunteer hours during Prosperity Month,” said Dennis Paul, Vice President of Community Affairs for Elevations. “Elevations members and employees are the best, and we thank everyone who participated in this initiative to showcase our dedication to the communities we serve. When we all work together, we are truly prosperous together.”
The Prosperity Month proved to be a huge success in not only supporting the community in which Elevations Credit Union serves, but also help in helping strengthen their internal network. Bringing employees and members together to work side by side was a special opportunity to further get to know members and strengthen the Elevations community.
