Framingham, MA – In conjunction with opening a new branch at the intersection of Route 9 and Temple Street in Framingham, St. Mary’s Credit Union is setting the pace for holiday donations in the area.
As a financial institution known for supporting its local communities, the credit union is paving the way for the United Way of Tri-County’s annual Feed a Family campaign, which starts later this month. The United Way of Tri-County serves 34 communities in the MetroWest/495 Corridor region and has a goal to provide holiday meals for 3,000 families this holiday season for both Thanksgiving and December holidays through its three food pantries. St. Mary’s Credit Union is donating $100 to the Pearl Street Cupboard and Café for every new account opened at its new Framingham branch up to a total of $20,000. The first $10,000 will directly support the Feed a Family campaign.
