The spirit of community was on full display as MC Federal Credit Union celebrated another successful year of fundraising through its annual Charity Golf Tournament.

The 5th Annual tournament was held on Friday, June 27, 2025, at Knoebels Three Ponds Golf Course, bringing together local businesses, community members, and supporters for a day of fun on the green — all for a great cause. This year’s event proudly supported the Getting Ahead Foundation, an organization dedicated to helping individuals break the cycle of poverty and build stable, thriving futures.

Through the collective efforts of sponsors, golfers, volunteers, and MC Federal team members — along with proceeds from the 3rd Annual Charity Basket Raffle held on August 23 — a total of $32,000 was raised to benefit the Getting Ahead Foundation. This achievement was made possible not only through the tournament itself, but also through a series of creative fundraising initiatives held throughout the year. From community events to in-branch activities, every effort reflected our shared commitment to making a meaningful difference for local families.

“Our mission is to be the catalyst that positively impacts the financial health and well-being of our members and the communities we serve,” said Elba Arenas, President & CEO of MC Federal Credit Union. “It’s inspiring to see how our community came together to support such an important cause. Every fundraiser, every sponsorship, and every swing on the course brought us closer to this moment — creating real opportunities for our neighbors to build brighter financial futures. We are so proud of what we were able to achieve together this year.”

MC Federal extends its sincere thanks to everyone who contributed to this year’s success — from local businesses who sponsored the tournament, to every golfer, raffle ticket holder, lottery calendar purchaser, and bus trip attendee who joined the effort. Your generosity makes a lasting difference for individuals and families across our communities.

Plans are already underway for next year’s tournament, and MC Federal looks forward to continuing this tradition of collaboration, camaraderie, and community impact.
