ICU Foundation Golf Outing to raise funds for grants and scholarships

Since 1978, the ICU Foundation has provided countless scholarships for credit union-related education, grants to small credit unions to help them remian viable, and grants to charities for services projects that benefit local communities.

One of the key ways the Foundation raises money to for this critical credit union support is via its annual golf outing, coming up on July 29.  The event will be held at Fox Run Golf Links in Elk Grove Village, with a 1:00 p.m. shotgun.  The event is scheduled as a dual competition, where participants can choose between a scramble or individual play.

Because of participation in this event and other support, the ICU Foundation has provided more than $2.78 million in grants and scholarships over its 30-year history.  Additionally, credit union support of the Foundation's "Credit Unions for Kids" program, which benefits the Children's Miracle Network (CMN), has totaled $1.5 million.

To continue with its quality programs, the ICU Foundation needs your support.  For more information about the golf outing, please see the brochure on the golf outing page, or contact Vicki Ponzo or Melanie Murphy at 800-942-7124.
