Freedom Federal Credit Union in Bel Air, Md. recently completed its 2014/2015 Patriot Program sponsorships.

The $269 million community credit union this past year sponsored the program in 19 elementary schools in Hartford County, Md.

The Patriot Program is a voluntary program that helps students learn about their country, patriotism, national and state geography and government, while developing a sense of appreciation for American history.

The Freedom Federal sponsorship provided the 19 schools with incentive awards of a drawstring backpack for students who successfully completed the program requirements for their individual grade level.

This year's donations supported nearly 5,000 students.

Schools supported by Freedom Federal this year included Bakerfield Elementary, Bel Air Elementary, Dublin Elementary, Edgewood Elementary, Emmorton Elementary, Forest Lakes Elementary, Fountain Green Elementary, Havre de Grace Elementary, Joppatowne Elementary, Meadowvale Elementary, Norrisville Elementary, North Harford Elementary, Prospect Mill Elementary, Red Pump Elementary, Ring Factory Elementary, Roye-Williams Elementary, William S. James Elementary, William Paca/Old Post Road Elementary and Youth's Benefit Elementary.

The Patriot Programs were developed by the schools' parent-teacher associations, school administrators, teachers and parent volunteers.
