A division of Atlanta Postal Credit Union, Center Parc Credit Union's mission includes "helping our members achieve financial success by providing exceptional products."

Center Parc Marketing Growth Specialist Regina Pointer said, "I believe Horizons is all about teaching young students how to make good decisions, which can lead to success. So we are both making a positive difference in the Savannah community that will have a far reaching effect in the short and long term. Center Parc's collaboration with Horizon also will extend to offering the youth in their summer program financial workshops. At the end of the day we are both 'people helping people.'"

The 2022 summer program saw the group's first Experiential Learning Week where students took part in a week of experience-based learning at off-campus locations. Topics of interest included culinary arts, the environment and history. This Lunch and Learn is an opportunity to get to know Horizons and how the organization supports the growing need for youth engagement and addresses educational equity in the Savannah area.

The local event is an offshoot of Horizons National's Giving Day 2023.
