The following organizations have received donations:

According to Charlie Zanayed, CoVantage CEO, “The credit union recognizes that these are difficult times for our communities, and our directors wanted to provide these donations as a way of living our mission by helping those on the front-lines who are serving our friends and neighbors who are struggling. While there has been an increase in demand for services and supplies because of COVID-19, it is our hope that these donations to non-profit organizations will have a positive impact for those with the greatest needs. CoVantage Credit Union has a long history of supporting the communities we serve by providing financial support to organizations that serve those experiencing significant financial challenge. We are grateful to our members for their loyalty which allows us to continue to do well by doing good.”
