Hampton Roads Educators’ Credit Union has embarked on a new partnership with Thomas Nelson Community College in support of their growing athletic department by presenting a check for $7,500 to the athletics department. We could not be prouder to continue to support the students, faculty and staff at this great institution. This partnership will provide much needed uniforms for both the Men and Women’s basketball team, create new opportunities for financial literacy programs and workshops, as well as continue to focus on supporting higher education with a scholarship available only to Thomas Nelson students and faculty in the near future. We look forward with excitement for all of the new opportunities to serve our community that this new partnership will bring. We hope that you will join us at Bethel High School in support of the Thomas Nelson Gators’ basketball team when they have home games.
