Inaugural Teachers Federal Credit Union Golf Tournament Held on May 18 Raises a Record Breaking Amount in its First Year for Children Across the Country

Teachers Federal Credit Union, one of the largest credit unions in the United States with $9.4 billion assets and more than 440,000 members, raised more than $400,000 for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals® through an organizational-wide fundraising campaign. Fundraising culminated with the inaugural Teachers Federal Credit Union Golf Tournament benefiting Children's Miracle Network Hospitals®. Supported by partner sponsorships, as well as donations from Teachers employees and members, the golf outing is the first of its kind in the northeast to directly benefit Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and its mission to save and improve the lives of as many children as possible.

Teachers Federal Credit Union’s 1st Annual Golf Tournament was held on Thursday May 18, 2023 at Westhampton Country Club in Westhampton, NY, one of the most prestigious golf courses on Long Island. More than 100 golfers joined Teachers to support Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, including John Schneider, co-founder of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals famously known for his acting role as Bo Duke in The Dukes of Hazzard.

“We are proud to support Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and the essential role they play in providing care to children across the country,” said Brad Calhoun, President and CEO of Teachers Federal Credit Union. “We are thankful to our partners, and all those involved in making our first golf tournament a success, and look forward to continuing these efforts for many years to come.”
