Summit Credit Union is pleased to announce the success of their third “Join the Huddle” campaign. In the months of August through December 2022,Summit Credit Union set up an online auction for tickets to Carolina Panthers’ regular season home games. Each winning bidder was given the choice among five pre-selected charities for where to donate the funds from their bid. These charities included Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals/Duke Children’s Hospital, Backpack Beginnings, Toys for Tots, and Wounded Warrior Project. Summit Credit Union also held a “Summit Wears Pink Week” pledge drive in October where staff donated money to wear pink with jeans for the week. Staff raised $550 pledged solely to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.

In total, Summit Credit Union raised over $3,500 for Susan G.

We are pleased with the continued success of our Join the Huddle campaign and are excited for what the next season will bring”, says Sam Whitehurst, President and CEO of Summit Credit Union. “Keep Pounding!”
