Arkansas Federal Credit Union has donated $101,619 to Arkansas Children's Hospital for the renovation of its teen room. This is the first donation in a five-year commitment to that project.
AFCU said the planned renovations will ensure a teen-friendly place where patients 12 and older can engage with peers, enjoy age-appropriate activities, and find a sense of normalcy during their stay.
The credit union has contributed more than $1 million dollars to Arkansas Children’s since 1998.
AFCU is also part of Credit Unions for Kids, a national sponsor of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals is a national organization dedicated to helping raise awareness and funds for its 170 member hospitals, including Arkansas Children's.
