What began through a personal connection has grown into one of our most meaningful and enduring community partnerships.
Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union’s relationship with Marguerite’s Place took root through Amanda Harvey, a former member of their Marketing Team who served on our Board of Directors for many years. Through Amanda’s involvement, the Jeanne D’Arc team gained a deeper understanding of and commitment to our mission that has only grown stronger over time.
In 2017, Marguerite’s Place was selected as Jeanne D’Arc’s first-quarter Give a Click recipient, earning the most community votes and receiving $1,500 through their ‘We Share a Common Thread Foundation.’ That same year, Marguerite’s Place became a beneficiary of their annual foundation fundraiser, a relationship that continues today. Jeanne D’Arc became a gala sponsor in 2018, and their Financial Wellness Team has since provided financial education programs directly to our residents.
In 2025, Jeanne D’Arc deepened their investment in two significant ways: launching employee volunteer opportunities at Marguerite’s Place and committing $50,000 to The Place for Possibility capital campaign.
“Looking back, what began through a personal connection has evolved into a multifaceted partnership built on shared values, sustained investment, and a mutual commitment to strengthening our community, ” Alison Hughes, Vice President of Community Engagement, shared. “We are so honored to be part of the Marguerite’s Place story.”
