Trustone Financial Foundation Donates $1,000 to ELCA Outreach Center

PLYMOUTH, Minn.— In celebration of TruStone Financial Federal Credit Union’s 80th anniversary, the TruStone Financial Foundation is making a $1,000 donation to a local charity on behalf of each Wisconsin and Minnesota branch. As part of this initiative, TruStone Financial’s Green Bay Road branch recently donated $1,000 to the ELCA Outreach Center.

The ELCA Outreach Center is an initiative begun by eight Evangelical Lutheran Congregations of America (ELCA) Churches in Kenosha, Wis., and now supported by churches of many faiths and other community partners. It provides a wide range of items and services that help families and individuals in the community meet basic needs and move toward self-sufficiency.

“The ELCA Outreach Center is located in a former TruStone branch, and we feel that this organization is a perfect addition to the neighborhood,” said Tiffany Miceli, manager of the Green Bay Road TruStone Financial branch. “There are so many good things this organization does for the community, and we know they will put our donation to great use.”

Karl Erickson, Executive Director at the ELCA Outreach Center, thanked TruStone Financial for the donation. “We started our relationship with TruStone five years ago when they sold us our building, and that relationship has grown each year. Thank you to all at TruStone Financial,” he said.
