ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 7, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- "Because of the heavy lifting they do on behalf of the business community, our decision to make a corporate gift to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce was easy," said PenFed Credit Union President and CEO James Schenck, when asked about the credit union's recent $50,000 donation to the U.S. Chamber.
"The Chamber represents the interests of businesses, large and small. Regardless of geography, sector or size, companies look to the Chamber as an ally and a staunch advocate of pro-business policies that stimulate job creation and economic growth," Schenck said.
PenFed's contribution will also help support the Chamber's Center for Capital Markets Competitiveness (CCMC), which aims to advance America's global leadership in capital formation by supporting diverse capital markets that are fair, transparent, efficient and innovative.
"The Chamber and PenFed Credit Union share the common goal of making people's lives better by ensuring that consumers have affordable access to the financial services they need to do things like purchase a home and save for retirement," said David Hirschmann, president and CEO of CCMC.
