Financial Plus Credit Union Receives Co-op Miracle Match for Hurley Children’s Hospital

Financial Plus Credit Union donated $2,000 to the Hurley Foundation in celebration of Children’s Hospitals Week, and this week Co-op’s Miracle Match program pledged to match that donation. Hurley Children’s Hospital will use the $4,000 donation to purchase bottle warmers for babies staying in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).

“Children’s Hospitals Week is a wonderful way to honor the miracles at Hurley Medical Center that have touched our families, friends, and our community. We’re thankful that the Co-op Miracle Match will help our local Children’s Miracle Network hospital; Hurley Medical Center takes great care of the children in our community,” remarked Madeline Mason, Public Relations and Social Media Specialist at Financial Plus Credit Union.

“Medela's Waterless Milk Warmer is designed to safely, conveniently, and effectively warm milk for the premature or critically ill infants that find themselves in the 44-bed NICU at Hurley Children's Hospital. This special bedside unit is convenient, easy to use and easy for the NICU staff to clean and maintain. We are grateful to Financial Plus Credit Union for this generous donation which will allow us to purchase two additional waterless milk warmers for the NICU at Hurley Children's Hospital,” said Brooklyn Kennings, Assistant Director for CMN Programs, at the Hurley Foundation.

Financial Plus Credit Union is a member of Credit Union for Kids, a combined network of credit unions that support nonprofit children’s hospitals in the United States. The Co-op Miracle Match program is designed to encourage credit unions to raise funds for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, and in turn, offer additional funds.
