If you’re searching for a little good news in this crazy world in which we live, here’s some: The U of I Community Credit Union has collected 100 backpacks full of school supplies that they’ll be donating to the Urbana Neighborhood Connections Center for students in need.
The bags were collected as part of UICCU’s Creating Member Loyalty program, which seeks to promote service culture throughout Champaign-Urbana – something that we always could use a little more of.
The donation ceremony will take place this Friday, July 29th at 6 p.m. at the Urbana Neighborhood Connections Center, and the public are invited. For more info, check out the press release here:
