Community Financial Credit Union – with locations in Northville, Plymouth, Canton and Novi – has launched a donation program called "Season of Giving."

The credit union plans to surprise area non-profits with donations throughout the month of December, according to a statement released by the credit union, giving a total of more than $50,000.

“There are many organizations that do so much good throughout the year,” said Bill Lawton, Community Financial president and CEO. “What better time than the holidays to thank them and surprise them with a gift on behalf of our members.”

One recipient will be announced each business day from Dec. 5 through Dec. 23. Community Financial will make the announcements on its Facebook and Twitter accounts.

“As a community credit union, helping our members and supporting the communities we serve is at the heart of our mission,” said Lawton. “The Season of Giving is a tremendous opportunity for us to give back and say thanks.”
