WECU Donates $15,000 in Support of Northwest Wildfire Disaster Relief
Fires have ravaged the west coast of the United States leaving many homeless.
through the Northwest Credit Union Foundation (NWCUF).
“Fires and intense winds have caused communities to be driven from their homes, and left our neighbors
without food, water and shelter,” said Reid Frederick, Director of Community Impact at WECU. “Some of our
northwest neighbors have lost loved ones and we want to help.”
NWCUF will connect donated dollars to credit union employees and volunteer board members impacted. In
addition, dollars will be given to credit unions needing support to remain in operation.
WECU encourages members of the community to donate to relief efforts if they are able.
To donate through the Red Cross, visit www.redcross.org/donate/ and select “Western Wildfires” from the
