Sikorsky Credit Union Employees Donate Over 200 Books
Sikorsky Credit Union recently organized a book drive donating over 200 books to Homes for the Brave, a nonprofit organization located in Bridgeport, CT.
In honor of Love to Read Month, Sikorsky Credit Union hosted the book drive in February to give back to the community and spread the joy of reading. Employees generously donated over 200 new and gently used books - for both children and adults.
“Supporting our community is at the core of who we are,” said Whitney Cadett, Vice President of Marketing and Strategic Growth. “It’s incredibly rewarding to know that our Book Drive will bring comfort and inspiration to those at Homes for the Brave. We’re proud to support an organization that has such a meaningful impact on so many lives.”
Homes for the Brave is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping homeless individuals and families, particularly veterans, secure safe, affordable housing. Their mission is to help individuals achieve a livable income and return to meaningful, independent lives. “We are so grateful to Sikorsky Credit Union for this generous donation. Reading is such a positive and enriching activity. We actively encourage our veterans to explore the wide selection of books in our library and we provide them incentives for participating in our weekly book review contests,” said Vincent Santilli, CEO and Executive Director of Homes for the Brave.
