Wave Federal Credit Union’s first CEO Soak for the ALS Association took place at the credit union’s main office in Warwick on July 19th. We are very thankful for the outpouring of support that raised over $5,500 for the ALS Association. ALS is a neurodegenerative disease that causes people to lose their ability to walk, talk, eat and eventually breathe. The CEO Soak, inspired by the Ice Bucket Challenge of 2014, is hosted to raise awareness and donations toward treatments and a cure for ALS.

The community was invited to watch the credit union’s executive officers get soaked by two buckets of water, including Wave’s President and CEO; David P. Dupere, Vice President of Operations; Betty A. Pinheiro and Vice President of Lending; Elizabeth L. Zachow.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this such a fun event for a great cause. The success of our first CEO Soak could not have been possible without the generosity and continued support from our amazing members!
