Deptford, NJ (April 10, 2025) |
First Harvest Credit Union (“First Harvest”) has been regionally recognized by South Jersey Biz for their ongoing social commitments and community initiatives, which benefit the credit union’s 46,000+ members and the greater Southern New Jersey region.
The Community Impact Awards are awarded annually to recognize local organizations whose teams go above and beyond to help their neighbors in need and make a positive impact on the community. This year, the awards highlighted the commendable efforts of 15 organizations throughout the region whose community efforts range from accessible medical services and youth programs to uplifting women and underserved communities throughout Southern New Jersey.
First Harvest was recognized for their co-sponsored New Jersey Credit Union Food Cooperative, employee-led Charitable Journey Program, and ongoing 85th Anniversary giveback initiatives, which directly benefit the counties and communities First Harvest serves.
"Credit unions inherently exist to serve the underserved by offering quality and accessible financial solutions and by delivering on our strong social commitments,” stated First Harvest President & CEO, Mike Dinneen. “Our team members embody the credit union philosophy of ‘people helping people’ through our employee volunteerism, credit union cooperatives, and growing community partnership programs. I am proud of the dedication our First Harvest family has to positively impact the lives of our members and Southern New Jersey neighbors. Congratulations to all of our fellow Community Impact Award winners this year.”
