Giving Back to Our Communities

Bow Valley Credit Union Ltd is actively engaged in the welfare of our communities. Through our Corporate Sponsorship Program, the Credit Union helps our communities grow stronger and become better places to live. We are focused and proactive with emphasis on our youth and community based projects. Money earned in our communities will be returned to our communities. The Corporate Sponsorship Committee acknowledges the importance of our youth, local community events, health issues and environmental concerns. Together we support a variety of projects throughout the year. While funding will continue to be provided to established organizations, the Committee invites applications from grass roots, locally based non-profit groups whose objectives support our values.
