WESTconsin Credit Union’s Mission of Giving

The credit union philosophy of people helping people is at the heart of everything we do at WESTconsin Credit Union.

Through donations and sponsorships, volunteerism, and education, we hope to make a positive impact and support organizations that share our values. Our Mission of Giving is a commitment to Inspire Better together to build stronger, more resilient communities.

As a credit union member, you’re a part of something much bigger than a financial institution. You’re a part owner, and you directly benefit from and contribute to the local impact we make. That’s why we want to make sure you know the organization and values you help us support by being a member of WESTconsin.

By developing a strategic Mission of Giving with three focused pillars, we ensure our donation and volunteer efforts align with our values, mission, and community needs while being intentional and impactful. Learn more about where we choose to give back and why!

Three Pillars of Giving

Our efforts supporting this pillar focus on environmental initiatives, promoting sustainable practices, and programs that support health, safety, and community growth. With the goal to protect the environment and enhance the quality of life in our communities, WESTconsin proudly volunteers at wellness fairs, chamber events, and donates to local environmental organizations within our service region that give back and encourage sustainable practices.

WESTconsin believes in empowering individuals with the financial literacy skills needed to achieve financial wellness. Through seminars and presentations, financial education resources, and partnerships in schools and local communities, we are dedicated to providing financial education to all age levels. Our large financial education footprint includes access to free financial education programs like Banzai, free financial coaching, partnerships with four area high schools that provide professional experience for students and easy access to financial services, real-life financial education simulations, and much more.

We actively seek to combat food insecurity in our local communities by supporting programs, pantries, and initiatives that provide access to nutritious meals, so no individual or family goes hungry. Data from Feeding America shows a growing need in our very own communities. Through our support, we hope to help reduce barriers to access healthy foods, ease hardship for local families, and make a lasting difference.

Thank you for being a credit union member and helping us make a lasting impact in the communities we serve!
