On June 17, 2025, Mercer County Community Federal Credit Union contributed $2,500 to Junior Achievement (JA) of Western PA in support of JA’s mission to inspire and prepare young people to succeed. With the help of this donation, JA programming can continue to provide valuable lessons to hundreds of students in schools throughout western PA that promote financial capability, work and career readiness, and business ownership.
In collaboration with JA, credit union staff members serve as volunteers to teach financial literacy lessons in local schools, attend career fairs, and take part in JA Biztown – a fully interactive simulated town where students learn about the business world. “Mercer County Community FCU is a proud supporter of financial literacy programs in our community,” stated Sandi Carangi, CEO of Mercer County Community FCU, “this donation helps ensure our students continue to receive JA lessons in our schools.”
