Gulf Winds Credit Union and the Gulf Winds Foundation have announced a $10,000 donation to Rally Gulf Coast. The donation was presented during the Pensacola Ice Flyer’s Rally Foundation Night, which brought community members together in support of this vital cause.
Rally Foundation has been at the forefront of the fight against childhood cancer since 2005, achieving remarkable milestones including $35 million in research funding, securing $223 million in new federal funding, and providing 125,000 meals to families in hospitals. These efforts are strengthened through partnerships with organizations like Gulf Winds Credit Union.
Daniel Souers, President and CEO of Gulf Winds Credit Union, emphasized the importance of community involvement: “At Gulf Winds, we believe in the power of community and giving back. We were thrilled to bring our members and Gulf Winds team together for this special event, giving them an opportunity to connect with the Rally Foundation’s mission and contribute to this important cause. The magnitude of what Rally is doing for kids is life-changing, and we’re honored to stand with them in this fight.”
The donation will support innovative research focused on developing more effective treatments with reduced side effects. This initiative aligns with Gulf Winds’ commitment to creating meaningful impact in their community.
Cindi Bonner, Director of Rally Gulf Coast, added: “The generosity of Gulf Winds Credit Union is a testament to the incredible impact that community support has in our fight against childhood cancer. Their donation will help fund critical research that brings us closer to a world without childhood cancer. We’re grateful for their support.”
