San Diego, California – September 3, 2021 - Cabrillo Credit Union participated in the Feds Feed Families food drive for a second consecutive year. Throughout the month of August, Cabrillo members and employees from all four locations contributed 2,364 pounds of food, benefiting the San Diego Food Bank. 

In order to collect more donations and make a larger impact, the San Diego Border Patrol Sector collaborated with Cabrillo Credit Union. To support their efforts, Cabrillo Credit Union left food collection boxes at each branch and the administrative office. At the end of August, the Border Patrol Agents picked up boxes filled with food from all four Cabrillo branches.

Feds Feed Families is a government-wide campaign that encourages federal employees to donate food, services, and time to food banks and pantries across the country. This campaign has collected more than 92 million pounds of food since 2009 when Feds Feed Families launched. 

This is Cabrillo’s second year participating in the Feds Feed Families food drive, with plans to participate again next year. According to Cabrillo Interim CEO, Peter Sainato, “Being community-minded is a core value of Cabrillo Credit Union. We are proud to give back to the community we serve.”
