American Heritage Credit Union celebrates its annual giving initiatives through its Adopt-A-Family programs and donation drives to embody the credit union “people helping people” philosophy this holiday season. Over $22,800 was raised throughout the year through 23 fundraising programs hosted by the Adopt-A-Family Program. These funds are used to purchase gifts and essentials for over 150 individuals in need.

American Heritage Credit Union kicked off its 16th Annual Grand Illumination on Saturday, November 25th. Over 25,000 community members enjoyed the illumination of American Heritage’s main campus along with free holiday performances, a firework display, and a grand prize drawing for a 2024 Chevy Trax awarded to an American Heritage member.

American Heritage Credit Union’s Green Team hosted two Adopt-A-Highway Fall Clean-Up events in Northeast Philadelphia and Lansdale, PA during September and October. The committee also held its 6th Annual Coat Drive to support the Military Order of the Purple heart, which collected 150 new and gently used coats. The committee also collected 120 gently used sneakers during the donation drive to benefit Sanative Soles, which supports marginalized youth in the community.

The Kids-N-Hope Foundation raised $11,000 during its Winter Purse and Power Tool Bingo event. Over 175 attendees enjoyed a night of bingo, raffles, and time with friends and family all while supporting the Foundation’s mission to fund music therapy programs and other child life services.

Nothing shines like American Heritage Credit Union throughout the holiday season. American Heritage invites the community to visit its main campus at 2060 Red Lion Road in Northeast Philadelphia to enjoy more than 400,000 lights and holiday displays.
