MARQUETTE, MI – Dec. 12, 2019 – Honor Credit Union has teamed up this year with Radio Results Network and Northern Michigan University to develop “Goals for Good,” a sponsorship program conducted in real-time at every NMU hockey home game. For each goal scored by the Wildcats during home games, Honor donates $100 to the designated non-profit organization of the week.

Honor Credit Union’s Community Assistant Vice President, Jamie Gollakner, leads Goals for Good for Honor and has worked one-on-one with Radio Results Network and NMU to bring the program to life.

“Goals for Good is all about giving back,” commented Gollakner. “It’s a great way for our community to become engaged in NMU hockey while learning about our local non-profits. Honor’s role in this program is to provide financial assistance and bring non-profit organizations to the forefront of everyone’s minds.”
