Remaining committed to supporting the communities it serves, Delta Community Credit Union (www.deltacommunitycu.com) has announced the recipients of its Philanthropic Fund and pledges to donate $70,000 to 15 organizations in metro Atlanta. The grants, ranging from $500 to $10,000, will be distributed throughout 2014, beginning in this month. 

On Thursday, Delta Community presented a $3,500 check to Girls Inc., located at 1401 Peachtree Street in Midtown.

Other 2014 Philanthropic Fund grant recipients include the Atlanta Community Food Bank, the Brain Tumor Foundation, Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta’s Reach Out and Read Program, the Cobb Schools Foundation, Cool Girls, Fayette Youth Protection, Georgia Health Sciences, the Georgia Center for Non-Profits, the Joseph Sams School, North Fulton Community Charities, Rocky Mount Elementary School, Sara Harp Minter Elementary School, St. Vincent de Paul and the YWCA of Greater Atlanta.

In addition to the 2014 Philanthropic Fund grants, Delta Community has a long-standing relationship with Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. It also maintains Serve & Deserve, a unique and innovative fundraising program that gives high school students the opportunity to raise money for charitable organizations and, in turn, receive matching in-kind donations for their schools.
