Evansville, IN, July 17, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Since opening its doors on January 18, 2010, Evansville’s Ronald McDonald House ~ Serving Tri-State Families has served over 1,600 critically ill children and their families at its 3540 Washington Avenue location. In support of the charity and its mission, Heritage Federal Credit Union will be showcasing the Ronald McDonald House at its 7 branches (go to www.hfcu.info for branch locations) and administrative offices the entire month of July with hopes of raising additional funds and awareness for the local organization.

Currently, Heritage Federal Credit Union is featuring the “Big Red Shoe” Campaign through which individuals can purchase a Ronald McDonald Shoe for $1, and all of the proceeds will benefit Evansville’s Ronald McDonald House. Ronald McDonald House volunteers were also present at Heritage Federal Credit Union’s July 9th Member Appreciation Night with the Otters to sell Big Red Shoes. In addition, the Credit Union will hold a special Jeans Day allowing employees who donate to the Ronald McDonald House to wear jeans to work. The Credit Union also collects can tabs every month to raise additional funds for the Ronald McDonald House.

Ruth Gaon, CCE, President and CEO of Heritage Federal Credit Union says that the Credit Union is a Charter Member of Evansville’s Ronald McDonald House and has been a partner of the organization since its groundbreaking in 2009. “Heritage Federal Credit Union is a part of this community, and we strongly believe in giving back to organizations that impact those that live and work in our region.”

“Our Ronald McDonald House is able to continue our mission of serving and assisting so many children and families in need because of incredible tri-state partnerships such as our partnership with Heritage Federal Credit Union,” said Kathy Scheller, Executive Director. “We did not build the Ronald McDonald House in Evansville because we hoped people would come. We built it because they were already here – we have made and will continue to make a difference, and we are thankful to the entire tri-state for the support.”
