The Encompass Community Charitable Foundation
Supporting local,
charitable organizations
The Encompass Community Charitable Foundation was created at the end of 2020 to ensure registered charities in our area will have another option to source funding requirements for their operations.
Encompass Credit Union provided a $3,500,000 donation to the Foundation in 2020, and another $1,500,000 in 2021. The Foundation has used the interest earned from these donations, and by the end of 2023 we had given a total of $325,000 to charities in our local communities.
