Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union Awards $1,500 to the Friends of the Pollard Memorial Library
LOWELL, MA (August 12, 2024) – Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union is pleased to present Friends of the Pollard Memorial Library with a donation of $1,500 as the second quarter winner of the Credit Union’s Give-A-Click campaign.
The Give-A-Click program runs quarterly on the We Share a Common Thread Foundation website (WSACT.com). Community members visit the site, learn about the worthy non-profit nominees, and cast their votes for the organization they would like to support. The program with the most votes at the end of the quarter is awarded a $1,500 donation from the Foundation. The second-quarter nominees included Home Health & Hospice Care, The Methuen Memorial Music Hall, and the Friends of the Pollard Memorial Library.
Pollard Memorial Library serves the roughly 115,000 residents of Lowell, many of whom are immigrants and English-learning populations. The Friends of the Pollard Memorial Library provides financial support for Lowell’s public library in order to fund programs and services that would otherwise fall outside of the Library’s budget. The Friends of the Pollard Memorial Library uses their funds for projects including the popular museum pass program, kits for their Drop-In Craft Nights, and other programs and services for the community.
“The Friends of the Pollard Memorial Library provide so many free programs, from book clubs to baby yoga, chats with local businesses, and their incredible bookmobile. We’re thrilled to help them further their mission,” said Mark S. Cochran, President and Chief Executive Officer at Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union.
Community members can now cast their vote for Jeanne D’Arc’s third quarter Give-A-Click nominees. The nominees for this quarter’s campaign are the Anchor of Hope Diaper Bank, Connor’s Kindness Project, and The Good Project.
