With school meals paused for the summer, food insecurity spikes for many Philadelphia families. On July 9, UKRFCU joined 11 local credit unions at the Philabundance Hunger Relief Center, contributing to a collaborative food drive that delivered nearly 4,000 pounds of food and over $56,000 in donations. This united effort reflects the credit union philosophy of “People Helping People” and supports Philabundance’s mission to feed over 135,000 individuals weekly across the region.
Celebrating 73 years of service, UKRFCU reflects on its legacy, growth, and a bold future with a historic merger to better serve the Ukrainian-American community.
At Ukrainian Selfreliance Federal Credit Union (UKRFCU), we pride ourselves on being a not-for-profit financial institution with a mission of helping our members and the community for over 70 years. As a credit union, we operate on principles that set us apart from traditional banks. Unlike banks, which focus on maximizing profits for shareholders, credit unions such as UKRFCU put our members first. That is way over 140 million Americans choose credit unions as their trusted financial partner. Of those 140+ million, 135,849 members belong to the 10 Ukrainian Credit Unions throughout the U.S.
Credit unions and Pennsylvania state legislators launched a food drive this summer that has resulted in 7,380 pounds of canned goods and non-perishable food being donated to Philabundance to help replenish diminishing supplies in local pantries.
