Daleville, Ala. (January 13, 2017) — Army Aviation Center Federal Credit Union (AACFCU) donated $5,000 to three Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals as it completed its year-long 50th anniversary celebration. The donations to Children’s of Alabama, Studer Family Children’s Hospital at Sacred Heart and USA Children’s and Women’s Hospital resulted from a campaign that encouraged Facebook, Instagram and Twitter users to post a selfie with  #aacfcugives in the post or comment.

“Being a part of the communities we serve is an important part of who we are as a credit union. We were excited to wrap up our 50th anniversary by giving back to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals,” said Lisa Hales, AACFCU vice president of marketing.

Credit unions are the third largest corporate contributor to CMN Hospitals. Children and families in AACFCU’s local service areas often receive treatment at CMN Hospitals in Alabama and Florida and even at hospitals across the country when needed. According to the CMN Hospitals website, donations stay local to fund critical treatments and healthcare services, pediatric medical equipment and charitable care. CMN Hospitals are available 24 hours a day to help kids of every age and background overcome every injury and illness imaginable.
