On Thursday, October 22nd, First Priority Credit Union proudly attended the Zumix 2025 Fundraising Gala, Muze, a night filled with music, inspiration, and community spirit. Held at the City Winery, the annual event brought together civic leaders, artists, educators, and supporters to celebrate Zumix’s mission of empowering young people through the transformative power of music and the arts.
The evening highlighted the incredible impact Zumix continues to make in the community—creating a safe, inclusive space where young voices are nurtured, creativity flourishes, and confidence grows. We were honored to join local leaders such as State Representative Adrian Madaro, City Councilor Gabriela “Gigi” Coletta, and members of the Zumix community and East Boston, all of whom share a deep commitment to supporting programs that strengthen and uplift our neighborhoods.
First Priority Credit Union has always believed that true community partnership goes beyond financial services—it’s about showing up, engaging, and supporting organizations that inspire growth and connection. Events like this fundraising gala are a reminder of how powerful collaboration can be when local businesses, leaders, and residents unite for a shared purpose.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Madeleine Steczynski, Zumix Co-Founder and Executive Director, along with her dedicated team, for their tireless work in making this event a success and for their continued devotion to empowering youth through creative learning and self-expression. Their passion and vision have transformed countless lives and continue to make East Boston a hub of creativity and inclusion.
At First Priority Credit Union, we are proud to stand alongside Zumix and all the partners who make our community stronger every day. Supporting the arts, youth development, and education remains at the heart of our mission as we work together to build a brighter, more connected future for all.
