WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., October 4, 2024—Allegacy Federal Credit Union is proud to announce a $2,500 donation to Roe Roe’s Heroes Childhood Cancer Foundation.
Roe Roe's Heroes Childhood Cancer Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to raising awareness, supporting research, offering scholarships, and assisting local children and their families in their fight against cancer.
Started by Chad and Meredith Tucker three years ago, the foundation is named in honor of those who supported the Tucker family during their daughter Pearl Monroe “Roe Roe” Tucker's two-year battle with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
On Monday, the Tucker family visited Allegacy’s headquarters to accept the donation and meet with President and CEO Nathanael Tarwasokono, EVP and Chief Operating Officer Brian Vannoy, and Community and Financial Wellbeing Manager Lori Timm.
“It’s incredible to know that Allegacy is willing to jump on board with us to help spread awareness,” said Meredith Tucker. Chad Tucker shared, “Allegacy has always been community oriented and supportive of Roe Roe’s Heroes. We feel very optimistic for the families that will benefit from Allegacy’s additional support with this donation.”
