HOW IT WORKS
Through this program, subject to the availability of funding, Elevate Communities provides a limited number of project funds to enhance the quality of life in communities, improve services offered by organizations, and help provide funding to projects and tools that may not otherwise be obtainable. The partnership is established between the recipients and Capital Credit Union for a pre-determined amount of time depending on project need. This encompasses employee volunteer work (if requested), project materials, time on project, marketing, communication, and more. This will be determined by recipients and Capital CU prior to funding.
This program is not to be viewed as an ongoing funding resource. The Elevate Communities program may be discontinued at any time.
