"This year, the CDCU staff and board are very pleased to present this distinguished award to Jared Gleue!" Gleue was presented the award during CDCU's annual meeting in Salt Lake City. "Since taking the CRA reins at Wells Fargo almost four years ago, Jared has opened many new opportunities for CDCU to partner with Wells Fargo," Brush added. "This partnership has blossomed, and has benefitted many, many families served by CDCU. For instance, Jared had helped secure more than $100,000 in funding for CDCU’s neigh- borhood revitalization efforts and housing counseling programs. He has also introduced CDCU to Wells Fargo’s volunteer programs, which provide free labor to work on affordable housing projects." CDCU is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded in 1990 to provide solutions for distressed neighborhoods in Salt Lake City. Since then, CDCU has grown to be a major affordable housing provider throughout Utah. CDCU builds new single-and multi-family housing, rehabilitates existing housing stock, and works to revitalize neighbor- hoods around the state. WELLS FARGO VOLUNTEERS SALVAGE BICYCLE PARTS TO PROMOTE CYCLING AND EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS Nearly a dozen Wells Fargo team members recently spent an afternoon removing and salvaging parts from damaged bicycles to help a local nonprofit fulfill its mission of promoting cycling as an effective and sustainable form of transportation. Founded in 2002, the Bicycle Collective provides refur- bished bicycles and educational programs to the communi- ty, focusing on children and lower-income households. This commitment to providing refurbished bicycles for nominal resale and charitable purposes has put thousands of bikes back into the community. Last year, the nonprofit refurbished 1,989 bicycles and donated 559 bikes to low-in- come families.  Bank Kudos — continued from page 17 Bank Kudos
