KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – A local credit union recently reached out to give front line healthcare workers a boost. Kellogg Community Credit Union collaborated with local businesses to donate coffee, Herbalife tea bombs, and protein coffee energy drinks to local healthcare workers to show their support for their hard work and dedication during the COVOD-19 pandemic.
KCCU partnered with West Main Nutrition in Kalamazoo, and three different Biggby’s located in Battle Creek, Byron Center, and Three Rivers to sponsor the coffee and energy drinks, that delivered them to various departments throughout the hospitals to help give the healthcare workers an extra boost of energy during their shift.
The local hospitals that received these drinks were Bronson Methodist in Kkalamazoo and Bronson Battle Creek in Battle Creek, Oaklawn Hospital in Marshall, Ascension Borgess in Kalamazoo, Three Rivers Health, and Metro Health in Wyoming.
“Our clinical staff is fighting coronavirus daily and caring for very ill patients. It is mentally and physically exhausting,” said Deb Smith, Director of CCU at Oaklawn Hospital, MSN, RN. “Staff are covering multiple shifts and working many hours. The coffee donation that Biggby and Kellogg Community Credit Union provided was a much-needed respite and was greatly appreciated by our staff.”
