POCATELLO, Idaho, Dec. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As a proud sponsor of the Idaho State Bengals, Mountain America Credit Union committed to making a donation to a charity for every first down completed by the Bengals in the 2018 football season. This year, Mountain America chose the Portneuf Health Trust as the recipient of the Mountain America First Down Donation program.
As a result, Mountain America Credit Union presented $15,000 to the Portneuf Health Trust on December 5, 2018.
