Book Drive a Wonderful Success
The Book Drive was a tremendous success, with a final total of 240 books donated. Contributions included a variety of children’s books, coloring and activity books, and even a classroom-style wall decoration pack featuring a large tree and owls.
We are continually amazed by the generosity of our members whenever we announce these collection events. Their support makes it possible for us to place books directly into the hands of children, encouraging a love of reading and learning.
One of the best parts of this program is that the books are freely given to the children to enjoy. If they return to exchange a book for another, that’s wonderful. If they choose to keep and reread their favorites again and again, that’s wonderful too. The Center experiences no loss, and the children gain the joy of reading, making this program a perfect success for everyone involved.
Thank you to all who donated and helped make this year’s Book Drive so meaningful.
Volunteering at the Credit for Life Fair at Methuen High School
Methuen Credit Union team members had the privilege of volunteering at the Credit for Life Fair at Methuen High School. During the event, more than 400 seniors gained hands-on experience with real-world financial literacy skills. Each student selected a career, calculated a monthly budget, and navigated their financial future by making a series of practical financial decisions. Volunteers offered guidance and feedback to help students effectively manage their budgets and set themselves up for success.
