APGFCU Employees Help Brighten the Holidays for Local Families

APGFCU proudly supports The Salvation Army Angel Tree Program

For more than 25 years, employees of APG Federal Credit Union (APGFCU) have partnered with The Salvation Army and its Angel Tree program to provide gifts to local families in need during the December holiday season. APGFCU staff gave generously again this year, collecting hundreds of new toys and gifts of clothing for deserving children in Harford and Cecil counties. In addition, the credit union gave the gift of savings by providing a certificate valued at $25 for each child to redeem and open a share account.

Through the Angel Tree program, local families in need register their children for Christmas gifts through The Salvation Army. Gift-givers may choose to donate all the items on a child’s wish list or additional gifts. Once donations are collected, The Salvation Army sorts and then distributes the gifts to the families before Christmas Eve.
