AUSTIN, Texas–Greater Texas Credit Union raised $1,664.85 for the Children’s Tumor Foundation through employee fundraising in 2017.
The Children’s Tumor Foundation was chosen as the recipient of the 2017 Give Back Days where employees fundraise one day a month. With 19 branches across the state of Texas, employees choose a state-wide or national organization to receive the Give Back funds versus splitting it up between individual chapters of the organization.
The foundation’s mission is to drive research, expand knowledge, and advance care for the NF community with a vision for ending NF overall. Neurofibromatosis (NF) causes tumors to grow on nerves throughout the body. The term NF represents three distinct disorders: NF1, NF2 and Schwannomatosis.
