LEADERS CREDIT UNION CARRIES OUT 2 ND ANNUAL “FROM
LEADERS WITH LOVE” GOODWILL PROJECT THIS CHRISTMAS
JACKSON, Tenn. (Dec. 21, 2017) – Leaders Credit Union, a member-owned financial
cooperative based in Jackson, Tenn., spread holiday cheer around the community with their second
annual, “From Leaders with Love” project. Each branch and department adopted a project in the
community and carried it out over the past two weeks. Projects included stocking and cleaning
ComeUnity Café in downtown Jackson, lunch for the local fire department, ICU goodie baskets for
JMCGH, serving at Community Montessori School, paying for cars’ entrances to Christmas Under the
STARs and Discovery Park of America’s Let It Glow Light Show, and many others. Leaders carried out a
total of sixteen projects throughout West Tennessee.
“Our ‘From Leaders with Love’ project gives us the opportunity to give forward, to bless others in both
big ways and small,” President and CEO Todd Swims said. “We are thankful that we as a credit union
have the ability to impact our community in a positive way and encourage those who do good. The best
way we can lead is to give.”
Each branch and department was encouraged to pick a project they felt passionate about, and the results
spanned from giving pedicure vouchers to ladies at the Women’s Center to collecting coats for students at
Isaac Lane Elementary. Leaders Credit Union released a compilation video of the projects on their
Facebook page on Friday, Dec. 15, and the video has reached over 12,000 Facebook users thus far.
“The camaraderie that’s involved in giving of yourself – of your resources, of your time, together as one –
it’s immeasurable. The ripples of a gift can never be calculated – but they stretch deep and wide into the
core of who we are. That’s what From Leaders with Love is about,” Swims said.
