CAPITAL REGION —In 2019, the Hudson River Community Credit Union (HRCCU) conducted its annual year-end Give4Kids Matching Campaign in its continued effort to support local youth centers in the communities it serves. 

This year’s campaign raised an impressive $25,500 to support local youth centers in the Capital Region. Recipients included the Saratoga Regional YMCA Corinth Branch’s After School Enrichment Program, Glens Falls Area Youth Center and the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Capital Area. Each location received a total of $8,500 to help support their efforts in the community.

Over the past seven years, HRCCU has raised more than $150,000 for local youth centers within the communities it serves. Donations have been used to purchase new equipment, supplies and provide student scholarships.

In 2020, HRCCU will again support local youth centers through its new fundraising event: The Great Inflatable Race. The fundraiser, which will take place on September 19, 2020 at the Washington County Fairgrounds in Greenwich, is designed to provide fun for the whole family while supporting a great cause. Registration for the event is now open to the public at https://newenglandruns.com/event/great-inflatable-race-saratoga-springs/ or https://www.hrccu.org/thegreatinflatablerace/.

Hudson River Community Credit Union (HRCCU) is a not-for-profit financial cooperative whose mission is to make life better for its members. Anyone who lives, works, worships, or attends school located within Saratoga, Warren, Washington, Rensselaer counties or the Towns of Cohoes, Watervliet or Green Island and their immediate families are eligible to join.
