United States Senate FCU Delivers $75,000 to Local Food Banks this Holiday Season

During this holiday season the United States Senate FCU is strengthening its commitment to community support by donating $75,000 to organizations fighting hunger and supporting families across the region.

Throughout the final weeks of December, USSFCU's President & CEO and members of the Credit Union's leadership team personally visited nonprofit partners to deliver checks and express support for their mission-driven work during one of the busiest times of the year.

Year-end donations were distributed to the following organizations:

• Carpenter's Shelter - $10,000
• Capital Area Food Bank - $10,000
• SOME (So Others Might Eat) - $15,000
• Maryland Food Bank - $10,000
• Blue Ridge Area Food Bank - $10,000
• Manna Food Center - $10,000
• ALIVE! - $10,000

These donations help ensure local families have access to meals, shelter, and essential support heading into the winter months, when community needs often rise sharply.

"Our commitment goes beyond writing a check-it's about showing up for our community," said Timothy L. Anderson, President & CEO of USSFCU. "Food banks and service organizations are doing critical work during the busiest time of the year. It was important to us not only to provide financial assistance, but to visit each nonprofit in person and hear directly about the impact they are making."

"Being able to meet these organizations face-to-face was incredibly meaningful for our team," added Eduardo Villanueva, Engagement & Events Manager. "We see firsthand how much dedication goes into supporting families, and we're proud to play even a small part in helping them continue their mission."

This initiative reflects USSFCU's long-standing philosophy of people helping people and its commitment to uplifting communities across the Washington metropolitan area. The Credit Union continues to invest in programs and partnerships that support financial wellness, stability, and access to essential resources.
