Oregon & Southwest Washington Nonprofits Receive More Than $4 Million from OnPoint Community Credit Union in 2025

Donations mark another record-breaking year of giving for OnPoint, which supported more than 350 nonprofits in 2025 

PORTLAND, Ore. — Oregon’s largest credit union donated an unprecedented amount to 350+ nonprofits across Oregon and southwest Washington. This year’s giving totaled more than $4 million, and focused on food and shelter, youth services, financial education, and environmental stewardship.  

“The holiday season reminds us of what communities can accomplish when we come together,” said Rob Stuart, president and CEO of OnPoint Community Credit Union. “These nonprofits are feeding families, helping people stay housed and giving children a safe place to sleep. We are honored to advance their missions.” 

The support comes at a critical time, as one in eight people in the region is experiencing food insecurity, according to Feeding America. $110,000 of the monetary donations were earmarked specifically for food and shelter support services. 

OnPoint’s Employee Giving Campaign 

Every year, OnPoint employees receive $50 each to allocate to the food or shelter nonprofit of their choice.  The campaign, now in its ninth year, resulted in just over 1,270 OnPoint employees contributing a combined $53,085 to 225 nonprofits.  Eight of those organizations received an additional $60,000 match from OnPoint to further advance their critical missions. The funds will be divided equally among the following groups:   

• Centro Cultural: Provides culturally-specific free food to approximately 500-600 families and individuals weekly in Cornelius, Oregon. 

• Path Home: With more unsheltered families in Oregon than any state in the nation, Path Home empowers families and children to get back into housing and stay there long-term. 

• Marion Polk Food Share: Distributes nutritious food for individuals and families to more than 100 local partners, including food pantries and meal sites. It also delivers Meals on Wheels and operates an urban farm. 

• Looking Glass Community Services: Provides comprehensive services to teens in crisis, including emergency shelter for homeless youth. 

• J Bar J Youth Services: Provides shelter, transitional living, family mediation, and counseling for homeless youth. 

• Council on Aging of Central Oregon: Provides meals for adults ages 60 and older through Meals on Wheels and Community Dining in Central Oregon. 

• FISH of Vancouver: Provides emergency food boxes to those in need through its food pantry. 

• YWCA of Clark County: Dedicated to empowering women, preventing violence and eliminating racism and other forms of oppression. It is the only Emergency Domestic Violence Shelter in Clark   

“At Marion Polk Food Share, $1 donated provides 3 meals in our community, which means that the employees of OnPoint Community Credit Union have provided more than 22,000 meals for the people in Marion and Polk counties this holiday season,” said Rick Gaupo, president & CEO, Marion Polk Food Share. “All we can say is thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for shortening the distance between families and the nutritious food they need to thrive.”
