Alta Vista Credit Union celebrates its 75th anniversary by giving $1,095 to members and local charity

REDLANDS, CA (April 19, 2018) — Alta Vista Credit Union announced today that its first quarter’s 75th Anniversary Visa campaign gave a total of $1,095 to three winning members of the monthly and quarterly cash drawings, and to the credit union’s first quarter donations beneficiary, the Inland Empire Ronald McDonald House.

During the first quarter of the year, Alta Vista Credit Union members were given the opportunity to win cash through Alta Vista’s Visa Credit Card program. All members that opened new Alta Vista Visa credit card accounts or completed a minimum $500 balance transfer and/or cash advance during the months of January, February or March were entered into a month-end drawing for $75.00. All entries into the January, February and/or March monthly drawings also went toward a quarter-end drawing for $250 and will go into a year-end drawing of $2,500. Alta Vista gave $5.00 to Inland Empire Ronald McDonald House for every member that qualified for the first quarter-end drawing.

The monthly cash drawing winners were: January winner of $75, John Godin; February winner of $75, S Eddy Elaawar; and March winner of $75, Antonio Dupre Sr. Robert Collier was the winner of the quarterend $250 cash drawing. A total of $620 was given to The Inland Empire Ronald McDonald House.

In addition to providing the monetary donation from the Visa Credit Card program to the Inland Empire Ronald McDonald House, the credit union also helped families through the charity’s Meals of Love and Walk for Kids.

“I am proud that our credit union is continuing to help make a difference in our community and to share our gratitude to members through our 75th anniversary product campaigns,” said RaAnn Wood, President and Chief Executive Officer at Alta Vista Credit Union. “We’re a not-for-profit financial institution that soley exists to benefit the people that make up our credit union and to help serve those around it.”

Alta Vista is now running a similar campaign for Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) accounts. The second quarter donations beneficiary is The Unforgettables Foundation.
