Diamond Credit Union’s vision of bringing opportunity to every member of the community extends well beyond financial services. Through volunteerism and community involvement, our employees are committed to making a lasting impact where we live and work. Take a look at the many ways Diamond volunteers supported our communities during the second quarter of 2026.
United Way of Berks County’s Big Cheese 10
A group of Diamond employees joined over 500 volunteers to participate in the United Way of Berks County’s 10th annual Big Cheese held on June 12. The Beaver Athletics and Wellness Center at Penn State Berks was rocking as these volunteers helped pack over 250,000 meals. These meals are distributed by Helping Harvest Fresh Food Bank and given to local school children, food pantries throughout Berks County, and to the Reading School District.
Big Brother Big Sisters Bowl for Kids Sake
Diamond Credit Union had four teams participate in Big Brothers Big Sisters of Berks County’s Bowl for Kids Sake on April 21. In total, they were able to raise $2,515 for the organization.
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Berks serves children between the ages of eight and nineteen with a goal of creating one-to-one mentoring relationships that inspire youth, build self-confidence, and help them reach their full potential. “Over the past eight years it has been an incredible privilege to support Big Brothers Big Sisters through Bowl for Kids’ Sake, helping bring Diamond team members together to make a meaningful difference” said Diamond’s Wyomissing Assistant Branch Manager, Kaylee Rivera. “Giving back alongside so many generous people has been both an honor and a blessing, I’m grateful to be a part of a cause that changes lives.”
Manatawny Green Mini Golf Course Clean Up
On April 18, Diamond partnered with Pottstown Parks and Recreation Department to help clean up Manatawny Green Mini Golf Course. Volunteers helped prepare the course for the upcoming mini-golf season by weeding, mulching, and pick up debris around the course.
