SPIRE Credit Union was a sponsor of the MATTER Concert, which benefited the victims of the recent 2017 hurricanes in Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. Resources will include, but are not limited to, MATTERboxes, medical supplies, relief meals, clean up supplies such as masks and other items MATTER will procure. Held on September 20 and attended by more than 4,000 fans, the concert was a collaborative initiative created by Gene Simmons, MATTER and SPIRE Credit Union.  For the first time in over 16 years, Gene Simmons & Ace Frehely reunited on stage joined by Don Felder of the Eagles, Cheap Trick, The Jayhawks & FLIPP for the benefit concert at CHS Field Stadium in St. Paul, MN.

MATTER is a movement of people, businesses & organizations who believe they have the power to solve some of the world’s greatest challenges right in their own two hands.  One of the biggest challenges we face today is the lack of access to health. All humankind, regardless of race, income, religion, or sex, can have the same access to a full and healthy life. It is only then that we can create a world where we all matter.  To learn more about MATTER, visit www.matter.ngo.
