ROME, NY – DECEMBER 06, 2022: Need volunteers? AmeriCU can help! AmeriCU team members are available for charitable organizations that need assistance for events or activities. The credit union works to embody the principle of “people helping people” and encourages employees to be actively involved in our community.

In support of AmeriCU’s community involvement a new initiative ‘A Personal Day of Meaning’ was created. It’s a paid 8-hour day granted for each AmeriCU employee so that they can volunteer at a local charity of their choice.

“AmeriCU focuses on making personal connections within our community and that is why providing this opportunity for our team members allows us to be able to make a greater impact in the communities and our members we serve,” said Chief Talent Officer at AmeriCU, Karen LaPlante.  

Charitable organizations that are in need of volunteers for events or activities in our community can submit a request to www.americu.org/in-our-community.
