St. Lawrence Federal Credit Union spreads the wealth during holiday season

Posted

Several local charities, including Neighborhood Centers, Toys for Tots and the Ogdensburg Boys and Girls Club, and libraries received thousands of dollars in donations from St. Lawrence Federal Credit Union this past holiday season.

Heuvelton, Lisbon, Norwood, Potsdam and Ogdensburg Public Libraries and Hepburn Library of Waddington each received a $250 donation.

“St. Lawrence Federal Credit Union has donated to local libraries over the years. This year we decided to donate to several of them. We feel that local libraries are a great asset to the communities they serve,” said Richard Tacchino, Business Development Manager of St. Lawrence Federal Credit Union.

The St. Lawrence County Community Development Program was given $1,500 for Ogdensburg, Massena, Canton, Potsdam, and Colton/Pierrepont/Parishville community centers.

Potsdam, Canton, and Ogdensburg Neighborhood Centers, Heuvelton Central School Food Bank, and Ogdensburg Salvation Army each received $250 for their food pantries.

A $500 donation was given to support the Ogdensburg Boys and Girls Club.

Other charities who were given support were the St. Lawrence Arts Council and North Country Children’s Museum.

“The vital support these organizations give our communities is appreciated,” said Tacchino.

The credit union operates offices in Canton and Potsdam as well as Ogdensburg and Heuvelton.
