Numerica Credit Union RedZone Tailgate ties their work with the Touchdowns for A Cause campaign which helps generate funds each season for local area nonprofits. Over the length of the partnership, Numerica Credit Union has donated over $10,000 to local area nonprofits through donations for each home touchdown scored by the Eagle football team.
