Eglin Federal Credit Union participates in 2024 Day of Caring

FORT WALTON BEACH, Fla. — Eglin Federal Credit Union (EFCU) stepped up to help during the United Way Emerald Coast’s 2024 Day of Caring, held in conjunction with National Volunteer Week, April 21–27.

Eager to lend a helping hand, 12 dedicated EFCU employees cleaned and landscaped a foster home at Children in Crisis in Fort Walton Beach. Their efforts were amplified by a partnership with 27 soldiers from the 7th Special Forces Group (Airborne), who painted the Crestview Manor Assisted Living facility on Thursday, April 25.

Together, they made a tangible difference in our community.

“Eglin Federal Credit Union has a long tradition of supporting our annual Day of Caring, and this year was no different,” said United Way Emerald Coast’s President and CEO Kelly Jasen.

“We’re so grateful for their willingness to roll up their sleeves to make a difference in our community.”

Eglin Federal Credit Union has sponsored and participated in this event for over 19 years, and employees have painted, cleaned, organized, gardened, and more to help fill the needs of our community.

“Once again, I am extremely proud of Eglin Federal Credit Union employees for volunteering and showing support to our local communities,” said President/CEO Jerry Williams.

“I’d also like to thank the soldiers who showed up in full force. Only nine people were requested, and 27 volunteered. We are grateful for their partnership and look forward to supporting United Way’s Day of Caring every year.”
