Interra and Business Partners Make Donation To El Campito
September 2, 2025 – Interra Credit Union recently hosted its 3rd Annual Back Forty Shooting Clay event in Bourbon, Indiana. The event was a celebration of business relationships and a fundraising effort for El Campito Child Development Center, which helps culturally diverse children and families in St. Joseph County thrive by providing a foundation for world-class early learning and development support.
“Events like this allow us to celebrate our business relationships while making a positive impact in the community,” said Randy Lehman, Vice President, Commercial Lending Manager. “Partnering with El Campito to support their mission of high-quality early childhood education for culturally diverse children is truly rewarding, and it’s inspiring to see everyone come together for such a meaningful cause.”
Back by popular demand, Interra brought back the gun raffle to support fundraising efforts, giving attendees the chance to purchase tickets to win one of three guns of their choice. Thanks to the enthusiastic participation in the raffle and additional donations, Interra surpassed the fundraising goal—raising over $11,000 for El Campito!
“We are truly grateful for the outpouring of support from our community,” said Aleyna Mitchell, El Campito Director of Development & Community Outreach. “Contributions like these not only help us further our mission of providing high-quality early childhood education, but they also inspire more people to get involved. We’re excited to see the lasting impact this generosity will have on the children and families we serve.”
"We are thrilled by the incredible turnout and support for El Campito," said Mike Blosser, Senior Vice President, Head of Commercial. "It’s inspiring to see our community come together, and the impact of today’s efforts will be felt by local youth for years to come."
The success of this event was made possible by the generous sponsor partnership with Synergy Insurance Group.
