OCCU Foundation

OCCU Foundation exists because of our members. Together, we’re working toward building happier and healthier communities. Consider us your foundation, ready to make a difference.  

When it comes to community, OCCU Foundation believes in being big-hearted. We started the foundation in 2018 to further extend our credit union’s vision of Enrich Lives. We invest in our communities and our members. 

We’ve now donated more than $3 million in charitable gifts. And we couldn’t have done that without you! Because you partnered with OCCU Foundation, together we’ve strengthened our donations and our influence. 

To date, we:

• Helped purchase hundreds of books for local elementary schools. 
• Built confidence in youth through education and career preparedness. 
• Donated more than $200,000 to local food pantries. 
• Invested in nursing education at PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center. 
• Supported community and economic development efforts throughout the region. 
• Aided wildfire and ice storm relief and recovery efforts for neighborhoods in our region. 
• Funded more than $1 million in student scholarships. 

With many charities and community grants to support, we give generously to projects that improve well-being and support communities.
