Credit union hosts fundraiser for WMC Foundation

Tongass Federal Credit Union hosted a fundraiser for the Wrangell Medical Center Foundation. More specifically, the fundraiser was for the foundation's cancer center. Guests could enjoy food provided by the Stikine Inn, take part in a silent auction, and enter their name for door prizes. TFCU stated on flyers for the event that they would match the money raised for the cancer center, up to $1,000. According to Branch Manager Kemberly Green, the event raised a total of $3,690 with the matching funds. Pictured here is Green and CEO Helen Mickel at the fundraiser.
