$10,000 donation at stake: USC Credit Union set to take on Notre Dame FCU for 6th straight year

LOS ANGELES, CA (November 7, 2018) — USC Credit Union is ready to take on Notre Dame Federal Credit Union in the 2018 $10K Credit Union Charity Challenge! In 2017 USC Credit Union (USCCU) celebrated a competitive and friendly win over Notre Dame Federal Credit Union. Both credit unions contributed $5,000 towards the donation. In the end, although  the Trojans lost the game, USC Credit Union won the challenge and was able to award $10,000 to USC Troy Camp.

The 6th Annual challenge started November 5th, 2018 and ends after USC vs. Notre Dame kick-off game November 24, 2018. The challenge is simple, the credit union that opens the most checking accounts during this time period wins.

USC Credit Union selected USC Good Neighbors Campaign (GNC) as their charity this year. USC GNC provides financial support to university-community partnerships involving collaboration between USC faculty, staff, and local nonprofit organizations. USC GNC has a visible and positive impact on the neighborhoods surrounding the University Park and Health Sciences campuses.

~ Gary Perez, President & CEO USC Credit Union.
