SAN DIMAS, Calif., Aug. 14, 2020 /Standard Newswire/ -- Christian Community Credit Union donated $10,000 to International Ministries' (IM) relief effort in response to the devastating massive explosion in Beirut, Lebanon. IM has global servants serving in the area who can offer immediate help to those affected by the blast.
The funds for the donation come from the Credit Union's "Cards that Give to Missions" (www.mycccu.com/missionsdonation) program, in which a portion of the Credit Union's interchange income (fees merchants pay to card issuers) is donated when cardholders use their Credit Union-issued credit cards for purchases.
"We grieve with and pray for those who have lost loved ones and homes in Beirut as a result of the explosion," said Christian Community Credit Union's Executive Vice-President/Chief Operating Officer, Marji Hughes. "The Credit Union is blessed to partner with IM and One Great Hour of Sharing in this effort to bring relief and hope to the people of Beirut."
"Thank you to our friends at Christian Community Credit Union for the most generous gift to support the International Ministries' relief efforts in Lebanon!" said Rev. Sharon Koh, IM Executive Director/ CEO. "The people of Lebanon have suffered another horrific tragedy at a time when the country has already been under COVID-19 restrictions that have sped up a period of economic freefall. In times like these for which the word 'challenging' feels like an understatement, your gift will be used in tangible ways to share the love of Christ with the people in Lebanon."
