For the second straight year, Homebase Credit Union was proud to donate $22,000 to Service Dogs of Virginia. Total funds raised were the combined result of three charitable initiatives.

Homebase Credit Union’s Annual Charity Golf Tournament proceeds totaled $17,000. The event was hosted in September at the Cardinal Golf Course on Fort Lee. A very special thanks goes to our event sponsors: CUNA Mutual, Premier Sponsor; Eddie Whitlock of Lafayette, Ayers and Whitlock, Dinner Sponsor; Fiserv, Registration and Range Sponsor; Allied Solutions, Contest Sponsor; LaMacchia Group, Scoreboard Sponsor; Beverage, Team, Cart, and Hole Sponsors; and all participants and volunteers.

Homebase CU was honored to participate in AFFN’s (Armed Forces Financial Network) Matching Grant Program which matched the credit union’s donation for a combined total of $3,000.

Further, the credit union matched 100% of the proceeds from annual meeting dinner ticket sales for a sum of $2,000.

Homebase Credit Union is deeply appreciative of our members, community supporters, and business partners for coming together for the success of these fundraising efforts.
