Service Credit Union sponsored the third annual Salute Our Soldiers Gala to benefit Veterans Count. The event held in Nashua Sunday at the Radisson Hotel was attended by 540 guests including several key Service Credit Union representatives.
Donations went toward employment counseling, emergency financial assistance, mental health support, deployment support and substance abuse services for veterans, current service member and/or their family members.
“We are privileged to be able to help our veterans and military who give selflessly to help make our nation great,” said Gordon Simmons, President/CEO of Service Credit Union. “They sacrifice to protect us and we are honored to help them when they return home.”
Since the Veterans Count group in Nashua was formed three years ago, other Veterans Count chapters have been created along the Seacoast, in Laconia and other areas of New Hampshire to help service members find employment, housing and medical care. Chapters in Maine, Rhode Island and Vermont are in the works. Service Credit Union has hosted the S.O.S. galas for two consecutive years at its Corporate Offices in Portsmouth.
