Approximately 35% of families in Rochester Public School district qualify for free and reduced price lunches. Across the district 25% of the negative balances owed originate from students already receiving reduced price lunches.

“Our goal as a credit union is to give back to the community that supports us,” First Alliance Credit Union’s President/CEO, Michael Rosek said. “Helping families who are struggling financially is where we believe we can make the greatest impact.”

The donation will be used exclusively to pay down account balances for over 300 families who qualify for reduced price lunches, yet are struggling to pay back the remaining balances. The district will determine exactly which of those lunch accounts to allocate the funds towards to make the greatest impact for local families.
