North Haven Connex Credit Union Branch Coin Cashing Machines

Connex Credit Union kicks off first quarter “Coins for Change” program benefiting local community organizations for 2014

Connex Credit Union will donate all fees collected from their North Haven branch coin counting machine from January 1 through March 31 to the Wallingford Project Graduation. The coin counting machine charges 5% to Connex members and 7% to non- members. Every quarter Connex chooses different local organizations for each of their four coin counting machines located in Guilford, Hamden, North Haven and Wallingford.

The Wallingford Project Graduation is committed to keeping Wallingford’s high school seniors safe and substance free on graduation night. Their goal is to offer a safe environment to have a great time with friends before they go their separate ways in the fall. By providing this event, they hope to protect the graduates and allow them to move forward to the next step in their young adult lives.
