AmeriCU Credit Union is honored to support the Syracuse Crunch Mental Health Initiative to break the stigma and spread awareness about mental health.
The Syracuse Crunch, in conjunction with the credit union and other local organizations will come together for the team's first-ever season-long awareness campaign to educate fans on mental health.
In a time where the importance of mental well-being cannot be understated, this initiative is not just a call for change; it is a movement dedicated to delivering education, fostering awareness, and encouraging dialogue. The credit union is honored to help make a significant step forward in promoting mental well-being.
"In today's society mental health is a growing concern that touches all of us. This groundbreaking initiative presents a significant opportunity for our community to assist those facing challenges, bringing their needs to the forefront of our focus," said Ron Belle, President and CEO of AmeriCU Credit Union. "By coming together, we can work to build a stronger, more resilient community."
"We are grateful for the strong support from AmeriCU Credit Union and our local partners. Their commitment will help us bring our mission to life and positively impact lives," said Syracuse Crunch Owner Howard Dolgon.
AmeriCU Credit Union will team up with the Syracuse Crunch to start mental health conversations. The Crunch will have players share the challenges they have experienced with mental health along with mental health tips for youth, hockey coaches, parents, fans, and community members. During the hockey season, players will share their stories, a mental health tip will be shared during each game, and the Syracuse Crunch will hold a special Mental Health Awareness Night during the 2023-24 season.
