OnPoint Community Credit Union to Match Donations for KGW School Supply Drive

OnPoint celebrates 18th year supporting the KGW School Supply Drive to send students back to school with the tools they need to learn 

 PORTLAND, Ore., – July 31, 2025 – To support local students heading back to school in the fall, OnPoint Community Credit Union announced today that it will be accepting school supply donations during the month of August to help local teachers and students, and distributed with the help of Schoolhouse Supplies. The credit union will also give an additional $5 for every $1 donated to the KGW School Supply Drive at any OnPoint branch between August 4-9, 2025*.  

 The drive, which runs from August 1-28, 2025, aims to send 15,000 students across Oregon and Southwest Washington back to school with the tools they need to succeed in the classroom. All donations will stay in the community in which they are made.    

 “More than half of the students in our community start the school year without necessary supplies, and that affects their confidence,” said Rob Stuart, president and chief executive officer, OnPoint Community Credit Union. “We know how critical education is to future success, and the School Supply Drive gives our students what they need to keep learning and growing. We’re proud to support the drive again this year and encourage everyone in our community to join us.”  

 As part of this year’s drive, OnPoint will host a collection event where the community can drop off new school supplies and cash donations at its Clackamas Promenade Branch (8854 SE Sunnyside Rd. Clackamas, OR 97015). To learn more or review other drop-off locations, please visit KGW.com/School.  

 OnPoint Collection Event:  

• Friday, August 15, 2025 

• 11:00 – 2:00 PM 

• Drop-off location: Clackamas Town Center 

          Look for the Schoolhouse Supplies/OnPoint table in the parking lot outside the branch.  

 “Getting ready for a new school year can be stressful enough for families and teachers without also having to worry about kids missing critical supplies. Schoolhouse Supplies works to level the playing field and create education equality by providing supplies to students across Oregon and SW Washington,” said Alice Forbes, executive director, Schoolhouse Supplies. “OnPoint has been a longstanding partner in these efforts, and we are grateful for their commitment to education and supporting the School Supply Drive.”
