NW Plus Credit Union will be raising funds for Dawson Place Child Advocacy Center this April during Youth Month. There are many ways in which NW Plus members and soon-to-be members can support the effort.
For every new member that joins in April, including new SMART youth accounts*, NW Plus CU will donate $50 to Dawson Place, an organization dedicated to helping children who have suffered abuse and non-offending family members find safety, justice, and healing. Additionally, all six NW Plus CU branches located in Burlington, Everett, Marysville, Murphy’s Corner, Stanwood, Smokey Point will have donation bins where members can drop items to help to fulfill the Dawson Place Amazon Wish List.
“NW Plus Credit Union is proud to support children and teens in the communities we serve,” said Torrie Ramos, CEO, NW Plus CU. “Contributing to their financial and physical well-being is an important part of our mission to bring humanity to financial services."
NW Plus CU believes that good money habits start early, and Youth Month is the perfect time to lay that solid foundation at a local credit union. In April, for every new SMART youth savings account for kids 18 and under opened at NW Plus CU with the help of a parent, they’ll receive up to $25 in free matching money. Additionally, each child can pick an egg from the “magic basket” for a chance to receive an additional $10, $15 or $20 in matching money deposited directly into their account.
