NEW BERLIN, Wis., May 2, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- With the help of thousands of their credit union members and their more than 650 associates, Landmark Credit Union raised $45,357 for Children's Hospital of Wisconsin. The funds were raised through the sale of paper "links" and "hearts" at each of Landmark's branch locations.

Associates from Landmark Credit Union presented a check for more than $45,000 to Mary Piwaron of Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin. The funds were raised during Landmark’s annual “Link up for Children” campaign. In addition, the associates volunteered their time to create 1,500 card making kits for patients and their families.

"We are so grateful to our members and associates for making this year's 'Link up for Children' campaign a success," said Jay Magulski, Landmark President and CEO. "Their generosity directly supports Children's Hospital of Wisconsin and will have a positive impact on our local community."

In addition to the fundraiser efforts, a group of Landmark associates visited Children's Hospital of Wisconsin to learn more about the organization's mission, receive CPR/AED training and volunteer their time to create 1,500 card-making kits for patients and their families.

"Not only was this an opportunity for Landmark to further support Children's Hospital, but it was also a great way to reward our associates for their part in making this year's campaign a success," added Mr. Magulski. "Having a first-hand experience with the important work that Children's Hospital does deepened our associates' connection to our annual campaign. I look forward to their ideas for promoting next year's event."

Landmark Credit Union has $4.0 billion in assets and more than 650 employees, who serve over 340,000 members at 31 locations throughout Southern Wisconsin.
