CU4KIDS GALA
The entire credit union community comes together each year to raise thousands of dollars for eight Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. You can sponsor, donate to our silent auction, or donate to our live auction.
Attendees of the Northwest Credit Union Association’s Enchanted Northwest Gala and Auction at MAXX 2021 last week did a long-time fundraising tradition proud. They wore out their arms raising their bidding paddles again and again for Credit Unions for Kids, a now-national charity founded decades ago in the Northwest.
As a result, eight Children’s Miracle Network hospitals will have more funds to support research, medical equipment, and life-saving care for young patients and their families. Bidding on deluxe getaways to wine country inns, world-renowned resorts, and electric cars to be donated to each of the hospitals, contributors raised $1,001,720 – all in a single night.
