“This campaign is a testament to our team’s kindness, compassion and commitment to supporting heart health and advancing the mission of the American Heart Association,” said Navigant Credit Union CEO and President Kathleen C. Orovitz. “We are proud to contribute to such an important cause that actively fights against heart disease and stroke, and to help fund the research needed to save lives.”
The news comes on the heels of National Heart Month in February. Navigant’s fundraising campaign supports organizations such as the American Heart Association, which works to advance hearth health and fund lifesaving research.
Based in Smithfield and established in 1915, Navigant Credit Union is the longest-operating member-owned credit union in Rhode Island, with 26 locations throughout the Ocean State.
