Dover Federal Credit Union (DFCU) is proud to announce its successful participation in Military Appreciation Month, demonstrating support for our service members and their families in partnership with the United Service Organization (USO).

 

In a show of solidarity and community spirit, Dover Federal Credit Union hosted a USO food drive across all eight branch locations, inviting members to donate non-perishable food items. The drive resulted in a significant collection of supplies which will have a direct benefit on the troops and their loved ones. The USO is a vital nonprofit that provides a bridge between the public and our service members, offering support through a variety of programs. To further support their cause, you can volunteer at local USO centers, participate in fundraising events or offer donations to our service members and their families.

 

Each Monday during the month of May was also transformed into ‘Military Monday’ at Dover Federal branches. These days included free giveaways and snacks as a token of appreciation for the military community. There was also a raffle of eight USA-themed Yeti coolers throughout the month for guest visiting a branch. This provided an opportunity for DFCU staff and members to express their gratitude and engage with service members in a meaningful way.

 

Highlighting the month’s activities, Dover Federal Credit Union was a proud sponsor of the 2024 First State Air Show at Dover Air Force Base. The event, which showcased awe-inspiring aerial displays and various military performances, was the perfect opportunity to showcase our military’s prowess and dedication to detail.

 

“These efforts reflect our appreciation for the sacrifices made by our military members and their families,” said Debra Jewell, AVP of Marketing at Dover Federal Credit Union. “We are honored to support the USO and contribute to the well-being of our heroes.”

 

Dover Federal Credit Union remains dedicated to serving those who serve our country, not just during Military Appreciation Month but all year round.
