American Heritage Collects More Than 1,500 Items in Donations for Local Animal Shelters & SPCA

American Heritage Credit Union (“American Heritage”) recently completed its 5th Annual Paw Pals Donation Drive, which collects new and gently-used supply items for dogs and cats to be donated to local shelters and support programs for pets. This year’s collection was the most successful to date, with more than 1,500 items donated by American Heritage associates for this cause. First Heritage Mortgage Services and Member Business Financial Solutions, two subsidiaries of American Heritage, also contributed to the Drive’s tremendous success.

These items will be donated to eleven local shelters and pet support programs throughout the Greater Philadelphia region. The programs that will be receiving these items include the Philadelphia and Bucks County SPCAs, Pooch Kaboose and LuckyPups Dog Rescue in Abington, Cat Tales Animal Rescue, and the Animal Welfare Association, among others.

“We were thrilled by this year’s Paw Pals drive and the tremendous support it received. Being able to support these local shelters and organizations, along with our environment, is rewarding for us and something we look forward to each year. These kinds of opportunities are important to our associates and allow them a chance to connect with the community, a value inherent to credit unions and American Heritage as a whole,” said Diana Clark, AVP, Payroll & Recruiting for American Heritage and the organizer of Paw Pals.

72 associates from American Heritage helped with this program. Volunteer opportunities included sorting the various donations, packing the donations for each of the shelters, and making the delivery to each location. Paw Pals is just one of several volunteer opportunities that American Heritage offers to its associates. Other Green initiatives include highway clean-ups, a recycling book drive, and a coat and sneaker drive benefiting the Purple Heart Foundation. Associates are also able to volunteer for the organization’s annual community events, such as its Member Appreciation Day & Car Show in the spring and its Grand Illumination event during the holidays. American Heritage associates can also support its Adopt-A-Family Program, which holds various events and fundraisers throughout the year to raise money to support less fortunate families during the holiday season.
