COMMUNITY INVESTMENT

Enriching lives and communities by helping dreams come true.

Westoba believes in staying connected and engaged in our communities. Each year, we invest in our members and our communities through a variety of donations and sponsorships.  

Thank you to our dedicated staff who believe in the power of giving back. Collectively, they contribute over $9000.00 annually to the Westoba Credit Union Fund in cash donations as well as hours of in-kind support for local events, causes and projects in their communities.

“We are excited and grateful for the grant from Westoba’s Inspire program and thank Westoba for supporting the museum…This computer will enable us to create a top-notch cataloguing system for our collection and enable us to create posters and display information within the museum saving us both time and money.”

– Heather Brewster, Museum Chairperson of the Pilot Mound Museum
