In 1996, American Heritage Credit Union became the first credit union in the country to form its own charitable organization when it began the '''Kids-N-Hope Foundation'''. After American Heritage President and CEO Bruce Foulke visited the Children’s Seashore House of the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, he was inspired to help the program and was instrumental in the Credit Union’s efforts to establish the Kids-N-Hope Foundation '''to support the hospital’s needs'''. The first ray of hope that the Kids-N-Hope Foundation bestowed upon the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia was a Music Therapy Program.
The Kids-N-Hope Foundation enhances children’s health and life services as well as music therapy programs at hospitals and not-for-profit organizations.


American Heritage Credit Union employees are dedicated to supporting the Kids-N-Hope Foundation because they want to make a difference in these children’s lives. Throughout the year, employees contribute in various ways by volunteering at fundraising events, participating in the American Heritage Casual Monday Program, participating in the Pretzel Sale Fridays, and participating in Food Truck Days.
The Foundation supports pediatric health and life services such as music therapy programs, children’s centers, and after school music programs. Music therapy is the applied use of music by a certified music therapist to target clinical goal areas with music-based strategies to promote positive health outcomes. We believe every child undergoing medical treatment has the right to receive music therapy as an integrated component to their medical care.


Various events and promotions help raise funds to support the needs of these extraordinary children.
