InRoads Credit Union Donates Nearly $140,000 in Community Support During 2023

ST. HELENS, Ore., February 8, 2024: InRoads Credit Union, in partnership with their members and employees, contributed $138,853 towards 52 local charitable organizations, schools and scholarships during 2023. As a strong advocate for financial wellness in the community, InRoads channeled its resources to make a positive impact in Columbia, Washington and Multnomah counties. Specifically, $97,505 was donated to local schools, $36,348 to nonprofit organizations and $5,000 was awarded to college-bound students.

“We are more than just a credit union. We are a team of people with a mission to make a real impact in our communities,” stated Nathan Cox, President/CEO of InRoads Credit Union. “Every year when we look back on our accomplishments, it’s not just about the dollars donated. It’s about the actual lives we’ve touched and changed — that’s what drives us.”

Through its innovative Team Up for Schools program, InRoads’ members were offered one of three high-school themed debit cards that would automatically contribute five cents from InRoads to the corresponding school for every debit card transaction. In 2023, the program resulted in raising $97,505 to support those local schools.

InRoads’ commitment to community well-being extends beyond philanthropy, impacting more than 1,272 people through “Random Acts of Kindness” initiatives. Team members donated their time buying food for a local food bank, making Valentine’s Day cards for seniors, supporting volunteer firefighters in training and much more.
