Northeast CU Hosts Second Annual Nice Catch to Celebrate Kind Kids Initiative

Northeast Credit Union (NECU) partnered with the Portland Sea Dogs and New Hampshire Fisher Cats to host their second annual “Nice Catch – Celebrating Kind Kids” initiative to recognize children in Maine and New Hampshire who consistently demonstrate compassion, empathy, and kindness toward their peers, teachers, coaches, family, and other community members.

“It’s more important than ever to shine the light on the kind and caring young people striving to make a difference in our communities,” said Northeast Credit Union President and CEO Timothy J. Collia. “We believe that by recognizing these kids and making a positive example of them, it will inspire others to make positive changes in their communities, regardless of their age.”

The Nice Catch initiative encouraged teachers, coaches, youth leaders, community members, and family members to nominate children ages 18 and younger for this special recognition.  Thirteen grand prize winners were selected and received ten tickets to either a Portland Sea Dogs or New Hampshire Fisher Cats game, a NECU prize bag, a shout-out during the game, and an invitation to throw out the ceremonial first pitch.

We extend our congratulations to NECU’s 2019 Nice Catch winners.
