American First Credit Union Makes Generous Donation to Underprivileged Children

La Habra, Calif., December 23, 2010— American First Credit Union recently organized its seventh annual Angel Tree gift campaign to solicit gift donations for the children and teens of the Crittenton Services for Family and Children in Fullerton, CA.  The Angel Tree, filled with gift tags and wish lists, was displayed in American First Credit Union’s La Habra corporate office and employees voluntarily selected a gift tag to donate gifts for the abused and neglected children ranging from newborns to 17 years old. Approximately 75 employees donated more than 100 gifts including pajamas, shoes, gift cards and toys for the abused and neglected children.

“The Angel Tree campaign has become an American First tradition and our way to help brighten the holidays for the under-privileged children in our community,” said Pam Easley, American First President/CEO. “Special thanks goes to our thoughtful employees who organize this event each year, and to all of our staff who made such generous donations for so many children this year.”
