Crescent Employees Raise $15,000 for Strong Kids Campaign

May 20, 2011, Brockton, MA – If you drove passed the Brockton Fairgrounds Sunday morning, May 15, you may have noticed a bit of commotion. That commotion was over 80 Crescent Credit Union employees, family, and friends raising $15,000 for the Old Colony YMCA Strong Kids Campaign.
“Our employees deserve a ton of recognition for their extraordinary effort,” said Crescent Credit Union President & CEO Robert Gustafson. “The success of this campaign will ensure that dozens of children go to camp this summer and benefit from the many programs offered through the YMCA.”

UPDATE ON NUNZIO

Brocktonbeat has been featuring Nunzio for a couple of weeks and his surgery was a success. He was in need of major surgery and thanks to the generous donors he was able to have it and he is doing well. Nunzio’s surgery was a success! Thank you to all who donated to help make his operation a reality.Years of neglected ear infections have left this little Maltese in desperate need of major surgery. Nunzio, who is 8 yrs old, needed surgery in both ears to stop painful infection. This will leave him permanently deaf, but pain and infection free!  He is much more comfortable and recovering nicely. Now he just needs a special forever home! Click here to donate to the Life is Precious Fund.
