Charter One Celebrates Opening of Shelby Creek Branch with Donation to Extended Hand Charity

Charter One recently celebrated the grand opening of the new Shelby Creek branch at 8484 26 Mile in Shelby Township.

During the grand opening celebrations, which included family activities, a $1,000 donation was made to Shelby Township's Extended Hand Charity. The charity provides food and other items to individuals and families in need.

“Extended Hand Charity is a grassroots community organization that has no paid staff and uses volunteers to provide food baskets to local families in need during the holidays,” said Linda Curnutte, president of Extended Hand Charity, in a release. “I want to thank Charter One for its generous contribution which will allow us to help more local families and individuals.”

The branch, which has full-service banking seven days a week and a night depository service for businesses, is also offering customers a chance to enter a weekly $100 shopping spree contest through May 3.

“Our customers tell us how much they value the extended hours, personal service and seven-day convenience of our new Shelby Creek branch,” said Ken Marblestone, President of Charter One and RBS Citizens in Ohio and Michigan, in a release.
