\u201cSuncoast Credit Union\u2019s generous $10,000 gift is a powerful investment in the potential of our students,\u201d said Linda Lecht, president of The Education Fund. \u201cThe support allows The Education Fund to expand opportunities, remove barriers, and equip scholars with the tools they need to succeed both in the classroom and beyond.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor the students who will benefit, this gift represents encouragement, belief, and a brighter pathway toward their goals. We are deeply grateful for Suncoast Credit Union\u2019s commitment to empowering the next generation,\u201d Lecht added.<\/p>\n
Suncoast Credit Union, Florida\u2019s largest credit union, founded the Suncoast Credit Union Foundation to promote the education, health and emotional well-being of children in the community. Each time a Suncoast member uses hi or her debit or credit card, the credit union donates four cents to the Foundation to fund local initiatives. Since its inception in 1990, the Foundation has raised and donated more than $61 million.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to help 10 high school graduates pursue their dreams,\u201d said Jeff Kunberger, executive director of Suncoast Credit Union Foundations. \u201cOur children are our future, and Suncoast Credit Union supports their pursuit of education and excellence \u2014 and desire to make a difference in our communities. Best of luck to them!\u201d<\/p>\n
