Tullamore CU Community Support Fund is backing local

Tullamore Credit Union believes in supporting the local community and has a Community Support Fund in place to help local charities, sporting, arts, and youth or social groups.

The fund recognises the efforts, on a voluntary basis, of so many local individuals to improve our community.

Despite, or maybe because of, Covid 19, this year’s fund attracted a huge number of applications. The credit union has been able to support 89 different local organisations in 2020.

Presentation of funds to recipients has been significantly delayed, also due to Covid restrictions, but the credit union is making sure that funds are now getting to where they can do the most good.

Members of staff in Tullamore Credit Union made made socially distanced presentations over recent months, adhering to all required guidelines, including, as can be seen from the photos, the wearing of masks.

Presentation photos will be in the local press in the coming weeks and plans are already under way for the 2021 fund.

Any local organisation that might benefit from support from the Community Support Fund should contact the Tullamore Credit Union in early 2021 for details of the application process.
