AlliedFCU Partners with Arlington PD, Donates $800 to Purchase gifts for Children

December 9, 2024

Allied Federal Credit Union supported the Arlington Police Department’s “Santa Cops” program with an $800 donation this year – an even larger donation than they made last year. It’s an annual tradition for AlliedFCU to support the “Santa Cops” program, which partners with the Arlington Independent School District to spread Christmas cheer to families without the means to do it themselves. Program highlights include buying gifts for children and hosting a Christmas party for their families.

“Our involvement with ‘Santa Cops’ is about more than a monetary donation. It’s about keeping the magic of the holiday season alive for children and their parents,” said Sarah Ramos, AVP of Experience at Allied Federal Credit Union. “Every child deserves that, and every parent wants to provide it. Sometimes they just need a little help.”

 The donation was made through AlliedFCU’s Casual for a Cause program, which allows employees to wear casual attire at work to support local causes chosen by an employee-based committee. The employee committee chooses a different cause to receive funds each month. In 2024, AlliedFCU has donated more than $5,000 to local causes.
