On August 9, 2015, a sudden heart attack claimed the life of ACIPCO Federal Credit Union�s CEO, Mike Harrell, devastating staff, directors, and members. For this reason, we�re partnering with the American Heart Association�s �Life is Why� campaign in order to raise awareness of the dangers of Heart Disease and educate our members on the importance of being Heart Healthy. Mike�s wife, Daphne Harrell, CEO of Heritage South Credit Union, and his son Heath Harrell, CEO of Guardian Credit Union, have also joined the cause. Each credit union has created a special account in Mike�s name (Healthy Hearts for Harrell) to accept donations*. Together, our goal is to raise $25,000 by June 1, 2016, with all the proceeds to be donated to the American Heart Association in memory of Mike Harrell. We will also participate in the Birmingham Heart Walk on June 6, 2016, and invite everyone to join our team. Heart Disease affects us all. Please help us promote the importance of healthy living and raise vital funds to fight this killer. Do it for yourself, do it for your family, do it for Mike. *All donations are tax deductible. 7 Areas to Focus Your 2016 Goals Be a Better You in 2016 You might know them better as New Year�s resolutions.
