July 20, 2015

N. CHARLESTON, SC – South Carolina Federal Credit Union announced a $10,000 gift to the Mother Emanuel Hope Fund. These funds will be donated directly to the Emanuel AME Church in ways best determined to benefit the surviving families and the Church.

South Carolina Federal employees and leadership were able to raise the gift through an employee drive and corporate match.

“It is with great sorrow that we recognize the events of June 17th and pay tribute to the precious lives taken in this tragedy, said Scott Woods, President and CEO of South Carolina Federal. If any good can stem from this heartbreak, it is the unity and strength built and demonstrated within our Charleston community.”
