Naperville - Several DuPage Credit Union Team Members and their families and friends took part in the American Cancer Society’s South DuPage Relay for Life on August 3 in Downers Grove; raising over $8,100 in donations.

This year’s South DuPage Relay for Life at McCollum Park helped raise over $35,000.

Throughout the year, DuPage Credit Union raised funds through personal fundraising efforts, including the sales of luminaire, candy and pastries. DuPage Credit Union Members contributed by making monetary donations online and in Branch Office locations. Their combined efforts helped the Credit Union reach Gold Level status.

“I am so proud of our Team’s dedication to help raise funds for the American Cancer Society,” said Gail Mosher, Vice President of Lending. “Each year, I am humbled by their service to the community.” Mosher personally raised over $1,600 and earned Grand Club designation and a certificate of merit for her efforts.

Since 2012, DuPage Credit Union has raised more than $52,000 for Relay for Life events in DuPage County. To learn more about how it gives back to the community, visit dupagecu.com/community.
