The Crossroads Community Investment Fund (CIF) was established in 2009. Each year funds are allocated to non-profit organizations that support community development. The purpose of the Community Investment Fund is to provide a strong foundation to build upon and enhance the quality of life for the people in Crossroads Country
Each year a set amount of funding is allocated towards the fund at which time the CIF committee meets and discusses how the funds will be allocated for the year. The program opens for applications in June and closes August 31 of each year. The fund is now closed for 2022. The 2022 recipients will be announced in October.
In the past 12 years the fund has allocated over $420,000 to more than 120 community projects and initiatives!
We are proud of our cooperative roots and helping our communities will always be a priority.
It's about grassroots, hometowns and cooperation. That's the Credit Union Difference.
