Post Community Credit Union Hosts Fundraiser for Battle Creek Police Dog with A Forever Recovery

Additional Information

Battle Creek, Michigan – In March of 2015, Post Community Credit Union started a community-wide to help the Battle Creek Police Force to raise money for a new police dog. Later that month, a local addiction treatment program, A Forever Recovery, located at 216 St. Mary’s Lake road announced that they would join the Credit Union in their efforts. The facility pledged a $5,000.00 grant match.

Through bake sales and other community efforts the Credit Union has been able to raise nearly $3,000.00. Along with the grant match from A Forever Recovery, a total of $6,000.00 has been raised for the dog; who was named Ace.
