Corporate Profile
Texans Credit Union
Texans Credit Union is a strong supporter of the United Way. "Our employees here at Texans understand the importance of being good stewards in the community. Contributing to the United Way - an agency created to help our community and serve the greatest needs of our residents - is a natural choice for Texans, as it is an organization with values similar to our own," said Texans President and CEO David Addison.
With solid leadership from David Addison, the employees raised $227,122 in 2007, an increase of 14% over 2006. Steadily increasing each year, the Texans campaign has experienced an astounding 42% increase over the past three years. In addition to hosting an annual Leadership Giving event, every employee is invited to a United Way meeting during the campaign, where door prizes and refreshments are served, and the employees are treated to a speaker from a local non-profit agency that has received funding from United Way. This brings home the personal effect of giving in a big way. To support the needs of our local community, Texans also matches every dollar contributed by their employees 100 percent.
In addition to running a successful campaign, Texans Credit Union sponsored United Way University, a Campaign Associate and provided funding to support critical needs relating to financial stability and independence.
Beyond its generous financial support, Texans' executives lead through personal involvement. David Addison has served on United Way's Campaign Cabinet for three years and is a United Way Board Member. Matt Davis, Chief Marketing Officer, served his first year on the Campaign Cabinet in 2007 and also volunteered his time serving on a community investment allocation panel.
Special thanks to David Addison, Matt Davis, Texans' Campaign Co-Chairs Jill Blevins and Shalissa Clary and the entire Texans staff for helping United Way improve lives in North Texas!
