A strong foundation for change

Through our Nourish Network of volunteers and donors, we fund projects that directly impact our neighbors by putting money where the need is. Funding is provided by Lighthouse Credit Union and members and donors of the Lighthouse Credit Union Foundation. 

HOW WE DO IT

We invest and engage with mission driven non-profit organizations who lead initiatives in the following impact areas:

Housing Challenges

Food Insecurity

Volunteering

Education Initiatives

Our goal

To enrich and nourish the lives of others:

Our members, our employees, and our communities. Together, we’re changing the world and investing resources where the need is. By improving access to affordable housing, eliminating food insecurity, and supporting education initiatives, we’re making a real impact and creating a better future for all.

The Lighthouse Credit Union Foundation is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization governed by an elected Board of Directors.
