Phillip O Berry Academy Jr ROTC Cadets - They ROCK!

We would like to express our sincere appreciation to the Phillip O Berry Academy of Technology's Jr ROTC Cadets for their hard work and dedication to our annual Operation CU Troop.

Each year these cadets work very hard over a two week period to sort, repackage and coordinate all the hundreds of donations we receive for Operation CU Troop. It is solely due to their efforts that over 1,000 "goody bags" were given to the USO in Charlotte this year to distribute to the deploying soldiers as they leave right before Christmas to serve their country overseas!

We thank the hard-working young men & women at Phillip O Berry's Jr ROTC and wish them the very best for their future. They will go far in this life due to their commitment and dedication !!! Special thanks to Major Beasley for over-seeing this combined credit union & community effort with his amazing cadets.

Toys for Tots

CPCU was proud to participate in the Marine Corp Reserves Toys for Tots 2008 campaign. CPCU served as a collection point for the Marines as USPS employees and CPCU staff brought in new, unwrapped toys to be donated to over 60,000 children in the greater Charlotte region.

Pictured at right are two Marine Corp Reservists with CPCU employees EVP Michelle McGee (on the left) and Lamesha K on the right.
The Marines will be collecting new toys until December 16th of next week. For more information on the Toys for Tots in Charlotte please go to www.toysfortotscharlotte.org .

'Tis the Season!

Things have been busy this Holiday Season! CPCU collected slightly-used coats, sweaters and jackets for the Native American non-profit organization, Heartbridge. A representative of Heartbridge came by Friday morning to collect the over 50 coats & jackets we gathered for the children.

Pictured on the left, (l to r) Lamesha, Carol Young Founder and CEO of Heartbridge, Marquita, and inactive Marine/retired USPS/ CPCU Member, Jerry Smitherman giggle with the joy of the season as they pose with a small sampling of our collection of coats, scarves, hats and gloves for Native American Children in North Dakota.
