Indiana Members Credit Union (IMCU) collected truckloads of toys and over $730 in donations from members, employees and the community for the 2020 U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program. IMCU once again partnered with CBS4 and served as a presenting sponsor for the Toys for Tots Program.

The mission of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year, and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to less fortunate children in the community. The primary goal is to deliver, through a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to kids across Central Indiana that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens.
All IMCU branch locations served as collection points for new, unwrapped toy donations.
“We are honored to partner with and support the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program and their important mission of collecting new toys to distribute to children in need in our community,” said IMCU President and CEO Ron Collier. “IMCUs mission and values have long been to better the lives of those we serve, through our credit union philosophy of People Helping People, and this partnership is a wonderful way to give back to our community and support our youth.”
