Auburn, IN (March 9) – Beacon Credit Union is proud to support Fortify Life, a vital organization in Dekalb County that assists families facing crises by providing housing, employment assistance, and compassionate care. Fortify Life equips residents with the skills and resources needed to build better lives and strengthens the resilience of rural communities.
As part of the Play it Forward campaign, Beacon Credit Union became the first sponsor of Fortify Life’s new splash pad and playground project. This initiative will provide children and families with a safe, fun, and engaging space while continuing Fortify Life’s mission of community enrichment.
“It feels great to give to an organization that does so much to improve the lives of those in need,” said Dawn Pruitt, Auburn 7th St. Member Center Manager at Beacon Credit Union. “Being even a small part of Fortify Life’s mission is truly gratifying, and we’re excited to see the positive impact this playground and splash pad will bring to the community.”
Beacon Credit Union is committed to supporting initiatives that strengthen local communities and enhance quality of life for families across DeKalb County.
