CLARKSVILLE, Tenn (CLARKSVILLENOW) – Altra Federal Credit Union will hold its second annual Altra Gives Back Day on Monday, October 14. All Altra offices and member contact centers will be closed as employees participate in a variety of community volunteer activities.

“Altra strives to make the communities we serve better places to live, and one way we achieve that is through employee volunteerism,” said Altra President and Chief Executive Officer, Steve Koenen. Altra Gives Back Day is a way we can join together as a team and make a difference.”

Altra employees volunteer thousands of hours each year in their member communities nationwide. By setting aside one day to dedicate to service, all employees will be able to participate. The day was chosen because it is a federal holiday that financial institutions are regularly closed.
