September 23 was Miracle Jeans Day (MJD) for all credit unions across the state of Montana. MJD is celebrated annually and is a time for credit unions to come together to raise awareness and funds for the Children’s Miracle Network (CMN). CMN is a non-profit organization that raises funds for children’s hospitals across the United States. Our local CMN Hospital is Shodair Children’s Hospital in Helena who receives all monetary donations collected during this time.

Ravalli County FCU’s Annual Meeting was also on September 23 and staff who wore their favorite jeans that evening donated $5 to MJD. We also scheduled a bake sale for October 1st and set a goal to raise $200. Staff and members came together and exceeded this goal and raised a total of $570. The Credit Union matched all donations, bringing the total amount donated to $1,140! Thank you to everyone that participated in Miracle Jeans Day.
