The Coastal Communities Credit Union has been a constant supporter of the Christmas Hamper Fund in the form of money to help pay for the groceries and once again, it has stepped up with a $500 donation.
They, along with many businesses, groups and individuals, are the reason that the Hamper Fund has been able to provide food for the Christmas table for the last 49 years to many citizens of our city who needed some assistance.
