ENT RAISES OVER $100,000 FOR PIKES PEAK AND PUEBLO UNITED WAY
Employee's raise most in Ent's history despite tough economic times

Colorado Springs, Colo. – Ent Federal Credit Union wrapped up another successful United Way campaign – raising $101,371 exclusively from their employees' generosity and passion for the community.

For over 15 years, Ent has been a strong supporter of the Pikes Peak United Way – raising more than $90,000 for the third year in a row. Ent does not solicit its members for donations to their annual campaign; all funds raised come directly from Ent employees.

Charles Emmer, Ent's president and chief executive officer said, "We realized $95,000 was an ambitious goal for the 2008 campaign in the current economy. I am proud of the generosity of our Ent employees – a record breaking donation year like this shows how much our employees care about the community."

The credit union got innovative with their fundraising by creating uniquely themed gift baskets for an online auction. Each department and service center created a basket with themes ranging from "A Night on the Town" to "A Weekend with the Family." Other fundraising activities at Ent included jeans days, barbeques and tickets sold to a breakfast cooked by members of Ent management staff.
