LMCU’s Band Together Campaign Is Raising Money for Kids’ Care Programs

Grand Rapids, MI –Lake Michigan Credit Union (LMCU) is pleased to announce the return of its annual Band Together campaign. Throughout the month of August, LMCU staff, members, and their communities are raising donations to help support pediatric and kids’ care programs at 17 hospitals across Michigan and Florida. These programs provide life-saving procedures and support patients and families.

Between August 1-31, anyone can donate to Band Together 2023 at any LMCU branch or online at LMCU.org/BandTogether. Donations are also accepted through the Children’s Miracle Network at bit.ly/BandTogether23.

The 2022 Band Together campaign raised $50,000 for kids’ care and Matt Cook, LMCU Vice President of Community Relations, is confident this year’s campaign can make an even greater impact. "Through programs like Band Together, LMCU has established strong partnerships with the hospitals in each of the regions we serve," said Cook. "We are deeply grateful for the exceptional care our hospitals provide to the children in our communities and for the generosity of those who donate to this meaningful cause each year.”

Funds raised through the Band Together campaign will benefit pediatric and kids’ care programs such as the Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital Child Life Services and the C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital Child and Family Life programs. LMCU will match the first $15,000 raised through members’ donations.
