We’re In The Community

PCFCU Community Involvement

EWEB-GreenPower-logoWe contribute time, effort and funds where we think it will do the most good. So far this year, we’ve contributed to the following organizations and or events either financially or with our valued time:

 

United Way of Lane County

PCFCU Corporate and staff contributions.  We challenge ourselves to beat the prior year’s numbers. This keeps our contributions increasing!  Throughout the year we contribute to several United Way opportunities. Like the United Way Bookfest. Here’s a quick video Thank YOU from United way

Children’s Miracle Network’s Lunch at Tiffany’s

Another annual event Pacific Cascade co-sponsors with several other credit unions. An event that raises thousands of dollars to boost our local pediatric units. We also donate throughout the year, every year to different CMN opportunities.

Junior Achievement of Lane County Sponsor

PCFCU has sponsored the JA Bowl-a-thon for years. A fundraising event to support teaching financial literacy within the school system.  Grade K through 12. Another event that never grows old and does so much good for our community.

Thank You for Making the KOOL Cares for Kids Radio-thon a resounding SUCCESS!

You helped to raise over $60,000 in donations!

United Way of Lane County Day of Caring

An annual event in our great community. We’ve constructed buildings (little buildings), painted rooms, power washed and power washed some more, painted stripes in a parking lot, cleaned up landscaping, cleaned up rooms, painted rooms, built a sand box. We’ve come close to having done it all. Will, not quite, but a lot of different projects for many different local agencies, including United Way’s own landscaping. It’s all fun.

We built two outdoor playhouses for the Pearl Buck Children’s Center! (my personal favorite)
