Palmetto Citizens Federal Credit Union Raises $32,795

During the month of March, Palmetto Citizens Federal Credit Union raised funds for Palmetto Health Children’s Hospital through a variety of efforts and were able to present a check totaling $32,795! Thank you to members, staff and business partners who helped make this exceptional donation possible.

In addition to collecting donations at each office, Palmetto Citizens also made a $1 donation for every Facebook, Twitter and Instagram follower. The first $5,000 raised through these efforts was matched by worldwide surcharge-free ATM provider, CO-OP Financial Services through their Miracle Match program. Friends at Enterprise Car Sales on Greystone Blvd., Columbia contributed $5,000 to support the program and local kids.

Over the last five years, the credit union has raised more than $158,000 for Children’s Hospital! Since 2005 Credit Union for Kids fundraising efforts at Palmetto Citizens locations have raised nearly $275,000.

These donations directly benefit Palmetto Health Children’s Hospital by providing medical care for children in the inpatient and outpatient facilities of the hospital. Each year, the hospital has more than 150,000 children’s visits and offers more than 30 subspecialties to meet the medical needs of our state’s children. Thanks again to everyone who helped in supporting this effort!
