MCCU Donates to Miles for Memories

Marshall Community Credit Union recently made a donation of $100 to Miles for Memories, a grassroots effort to change the face of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias in Calhoun County, through movement, programming and research.

“Our branch is located directly across the street from Calhoun County Medical Care Facility, where the event took place, so it only made sense for us to donate in some way,” said Andrea Tucker, MCCU’s financial education coordinator. “Our office has worked on several events with the CCMCF staff and we are honored to be able to support their cause.”

Miles for Memories volunteers rocked in rocking chairs for 27 straight hours from Friday, June 15, until Saturday, June 16 at the medical care facility: one hour for each town, city and village in Calhoun County.
