HARRISBURG, Pa. – The Pennsylvania Credit Union Foundation is celebrating passing the $1 million market in funds raised since its inception in 1996. The first $14,000 of the funds were contributed in 1996, noted Foundation Chairman John Kebles, president/CEO, Choice One FCU, for the victims of the Oklahoma City bombing disaster. Since then, "the Foundation has carried on the tradition of caring and has achieved this magnificent milestone in a little more than seven years." Pennsylvania Credit Union Association President/CEO Jim McCormack said "all of the past and present Foundation Board members should be commended for their work in advancing the Foundation. Through their hard work and dedication, credit unions and their members have benefited." In 2003, the Foundation shifted its focus toward financial literacy. It is working to advance financial literacy in the 501 school districts in Pennsylvania.
