On June 26th, First Priority Credit Union’s Business Development Officer, Gaby Perry, proudly represented the credit union at the Salesian Boys & Girls Club’s 80th Anniversary Gala. The milestone event celebrated eight decades of unwavering dedication to youth development, academic support, and community outreach in East Boston.

The Salesian Boys & Girls Club has long been a pillar in the community, providing a safe, inclusive, and enriching environment for children and teens to learn, grow, and thrive. Its mission aligns closely with First Priority Credit Union’s values of service, inclusion, and investing in the future of local communities.

During the event, Gaby had the opportunity to connect with key community leaders and stakeholders—including Boston Mayor Michelle Wu, State Representative Adrian Madaro, Councilor Gabriela Coletta, Executive Director Mike Triant and other local advocates for youth and education. These conversations helped strengthen partnerships that are essential for creating sustainable, community-driven impact.

First Priority Credit Union believes that meaningful involvement in events like this is more than just presence—it’s about building relationships, supporting grassroots efforts, and amplifying the voices of those working to make a difference. By attending and supporting the Salesian Boys & Girls Club, we reaffirm our commitment to helping shape stronger, healthier communities where every young person has the tools and support they need to succeed.
