Do you have family coming to your house this year for Thanksgiving dinner??? No worries, let Eastern Utah Community Credit Union do your baking. The Annual Pie Sale will take place on Wednesday, November 23 starting at 9:00 am till all the pies have been sold.

“It’s our annual Pie Sale Fundraiser, we do it every year the day before Thanksgiving. All of our employees get together and they just have a baking frenzy and we bring pies and people just come to buy them. All the proceeds go to our Angel Tree Project that the credit union has in conjunction with United Way,” stated Cyndi Dayley, EUCCU Representative. “I know I am making 20 cream pies, so there is going to be assorted cream pies, there’s banana, coconut, chocolate and then there’s people making apple, pumpkin, pecan and cherry.” There is sure to be a flavor for everyone to enjoy.

EUCCU works hard through various fundraising events in the community all year whether it’s selling popcorn, cotton candy at International Days or hosting a Navajo Taco sale, the proceeds earned go towards the Angel Tree. Dayley added, “We have other projects that we do also, like we provide coats for the kids at the Castle Valley Center and things like that.” The employees have spent years helping children in both Carbon and Emery counties while working with the United Way’s Angel Tree program.

If individuals are unable to purchase a pie but would like to be a part of the Angel Tree project Dayley explained they can do, “They can just come in or call us on the phone and say hey I have an account there, I want to make a donation to your Angel Tree. We can then do a transfer for them or if they want to just come in and make a donation, we never turn anybody away for donations.” If individuals would rather pick an Angel off the tree you may do so as well, you do not have to be a member of the credit union to participate. Angel Tree tags are distributed between the three branches, Price, East Carbon and Castle Dale.

To help with the EUCCU Angel Tree Project stop at any of the branches, in Price at 675 East 100 North, in East Carbon at 105 West Geneva and Castle Dale at 125 East Main Street.
