Gray, GA — Robins Federal Credit Union recently celebrated Gray Member Appreciation Month, and residents had the opportunity to win big.

Throughout the month of September, Robins Federal Credit Union offered special low rates on auto loans. Anyone who opened a new account received a free gift. The biggest winner, however, was the local charity.

“Robins Federal Credit Union donated $25.00 to the Senior Center for each checking account or loan that was opened at the Gray branch during the month of September, up to $2,500.00. This is a wonderful organization that is doing so much for the elderly in Jones County, and we are proud to support it,” Gray Branch Manager June Nelson said.

Robins Federal Credit Union has supported the Senior Center, a nonprofit organization for the elderly, since 2009.
