$12,500 Donation to The Neighbors’ Place Expanding Community Diaper Bank Program
The generous donation on behalf of Cloverbelt Credit Union is part of Elan’s Across the Country Charitable Giving program
Cloverbelt Credit Union (CCU) is honored to have been selected as one of 50 credit union credit card partners to participate in Elan’s Across the Country Charitable Giving program. As one of 50 randomly selected partners, we were able to choose The Neighbors’ Place to receive a generous $12,500 donation on our behalf.
“CCU takes the philosophy of ‘People Helping People’ very seriously, as do our friends at The Neighbors’ Place.” Cloverbelt Credit Union President, Paul Chittum, stated. “They offer valuable programs such as the food bank and pantry, Wheels Again, community gardens, and other services free of charge to those who really need them. We are so grateful that Elan gave us this opportunity to help The Neighbors’ Place continue to help people throughout Marathon County and surrounding communities.”
Mallory McGivern, Community Impact Manager for The Neighbors’ Place, added “The donation will be used to expand our newest hygiene and diaper bank program, The Babies’ Place. The Neighbors’ Place recently found a diaper vendor that allows us to purchase pallets of diapers at a reduced cost, allowing us to increase the impact and provide this important resource to more children.”
“The Neighbors’ Place is an organization that continually grows to meet the needs of their community. Elan is proud to support their newest program, The Babies’ Place, to help families with infants”, said Aaron Melnarik, Director of Client Relationships at Elan.

About The Neighbors’ Place
The Neighbors’ Place is a homegrown community center providing a hand up to residents of Marathon County and the surrounding communities. In 1989, The Neighbors' Place was established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization after nearly a decade of effort by members of several area churches that came together to address some of the needs they saw in our community. Our mission is a simple one: to be “People Helping People.” We are here to work collaboratively, listen respectfully, and care actively – treating everyone who comes through our doors with dignity. www.neighborsplace.org
About Cloverbelt Credit Union
Cloverbelt Credit Union was organized in 1936 by local farmers who found it difficult to obtain financial services. Needing an outlet through which they could save and borrow money, the credit union was born. CCU currently has 3 offices in the Wausau/Weston, Wisconsin area and serves the financial needs of 17,000 members. www.ccuwausau.com
