Community Resource Federal Credit Union Partners with Mission Accomplished Transition Services to Support Students with Gas Card Donations

Albany, NY – ?Community Resource Federal Credit Union (CRFCU) has proudly partnered with Mission Accomplished Transition Services (MATS) to assist local students in their pursuit of higher education and career development. In an effort to alleviate the transportation challenges many students face, CRFCU has donated a generous supply of gas cards to MATS, empowering students to travel to and from their classes and training programs.

The donation comes as part of CRFCU’s ongoing commitment to community engagement and providing valuable resources to individuals striving to improve their lives. The partnership with Mission Accomplished Transition Services, an organization dedicated to helping young adults and at-risk youth, aligns with CRFCU’s mission of promoting financial well-being and supporting the growth and success of its community members.

"Transportation can be a significant barrier for many students who are working hard to gain the education and skills needed for their future careers," said Paige Angrisano, VP Development and Community Engagement at CRFCU. "We are proud to collaborate with Mission Accomplished Transition Services and help ease the burden of travel expenses, ensuring that these students can focus on their academic and professional goals without the added stress of how they’ll get there."

Mission Accomplished Transition Services provides comprehensive support to students, focusing on the development of life skills, education, and career readiness for young adults. The gas card donation is a direct response to feedback from students who expressed concerns about the cost of commuting to educational programs.

“We are incredibly grateful for this partnership with Community Resource Federal Credit Union,” said Rachel Rankin, Teen Institute Producer of Mission Accomplished Transition Services. “The support from CRFCU will make a real difference in the lives of our students. By easing transportation challenges, we can ensure that they have the opportunity to attend their classes, gain essential skills, and ultimately reach their full potential.”

This donation is just one example of CRFCU’s ongoing commitment to supporting local organizations and individuals who are making a positive impact in the community. The credit union continues to look for ways to partner with like-minded organizations to provide meaningful resources to those who need them most.
