Farmington Hills, MI – Jami, Robert, Tyson and Cheyanne Torres of Romeo got an early visit from Santa this year with Channel 955’s Mojo in the Morning “Breaking & Entering” and Community Choice Credit Union.
Along with many hard-working families, the Torres family has been hit during this difficult economic time. Jami and Robert, both veteran marines, have been dealt a tough hand bouncing back from service; along with Jami’s growing health concerns.
Channel 955’s Mojo in the Morning brings the holidays to local families who are experiencing hardship. Year after year, they "break in”, and load 'em up with truck-loads of food, necessities and gifts.
This is Mojo in the Morning and Community Choice Credit Union’s second time to partner up this year; this time, to help support the Torres family. The credit union and 120 team members pitched in, again, totaling $2,500. The money raised purchased home and personal necessities, including clothing, toys, and large sum check to help with bills.
“Community Choice Credit Union has a tremendous respect for those who provide military service for our country.” said Robert Bava, CEO of Community Choice Credit Union. “We are thankful for the Torres’ sacrifice while enlisted, and honored to be able to give back in their time of need. Our prayers are with Jamie and the whole Torres family in hopes for a safe, healthy and happy new year!”
