“We are honored to support the incredible work of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and the credit union industry through Credit Unions for Kids,” said, TruStage Executive Vice President Sales and Marketing, Tammy Schultz. “This contribution is a testament to our dedication to make a positive impact in the communities we serve. By sponsoring these nine events, we hope to help raise vital funds and awareness for children’s health—a critical concern for both TruStage and credit unions.”   

TruStage will help raise $7.5 million in 2025 through these nine events. More than 200 credit unions participate in these events and over over 125 hospitals will benefit from the funds raised.

John Bratsakis, President/CEO of MD|DC Credit Union Association and Chair of the CU4Kids Advisory Board adds, “The credit union movement would not be able to put on events like the Credit Union Cherry Blossom 10 Mile and others, without the invaluable support of TruStage. We are very thankful for their long-term commitment and partnership to programs that improve the lives and communities that credit unions serve.”

Credit Unions for Kids is a national collaboration between credit unions and Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals that raises funds to support pediatric healthcare services. These donations fund life-saving treatments, research, medical equipment, and support programs for children.

The sponsorship of the nine upcoming events will provide critical financial support to hospitals in various regions of the country, directly benefiting children and families in need.

“We are extremely grateful for TruStage’s generous contribution,” said Kristen Schavemaker, Chief Programs and Foundation Partnerships Officer at Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. “Their sponsorship plays a crucial role in advancing our mission to provide the best possible care for children in need. These events will make a real difference in the lives of millions of children across the nation.”
