MARSHALL, MICHIGAN – Marshall Community Credit Union (MCCU) and Marshall High School (MHS) are teaming up to inspire students to give back while they save for the annual “Save More Thoughtfully” promotion. From Friday, November 14, through Friday, December 12, 2025, the annual promotion will take place at the MHS CU in School branch.
During the promotion, every deposit made by students and staff will be matched by MCCU—up to $25 per deposit—with the total matched funds donated to the LINKS and NEXUS programs at the high school.
The LINKS and NEXUS programs foster connection, empathy, and leadership among students who serve as mentors to their peers in the Secondary Functional Program.
Every deposit supports students’ financial growth and programs that directly benefit their classmates.
“This initiative gives students the chance to see firsthand how small actions can make a big difference,” shared Laura Van Dyke, MCCU’s Community & Youth Engagement Manager. “The promotion has become a beloved tradition among students, combining financial wellness with community impact.”
