Area residents can help sick or injured children by supporting N.E.W. Credit Union’s February Chain of Hearts campaign. The Chain of Hearts campaign is a statewide effort by Wisconsin’s credit unions to raise funds for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.
The fundraiser for the local nonprofit hospitals of Wisconsin asks credit union staff, members, community residents and area businesses to remember the special people in their lives during the valentine season by purchasing a link or heart. Those who donate will have their names or the names of their loved ones displayed as part of the credit union’s lobby decorations. Paper links bearing the names will sell for $1 each and hearts for $5, $25 and $50.
The campaign will run until Feb. 28.
Hospital stays can be devastating to a family’s budget. All of the money raised in the Chain of Hearts campaign goes directly to fund charity care, research and equipment, and it goes to the Children’s Hospital that serves the children in this area.
Links, hearts and other valentine items will be available at all three locations of N.E.W. Credit Union: 301 Jackson St., Oconto Falls, 717 E. Main St., Suring, and 405 Pecor St., Oconto. For information, call 800-924-1250.
