Community chooses four regional nonprofits to receive $10,000 Numerica grants

SPOKANE VALLEY, WA (December 30, 2021) — Numerica Credit Union is donating $40,000 distributed between four regional nonprofits, as chosen by the community. Numerica invited community members to nominate their favorite local nonprofit to receive a $10,000 grant through the Gift Where You Live holiday giving campaign. In a surprise twist, Numerica also will give $5,000 grants to the second place winner in each region, increasing the credit union’s Gift Where You Live donation total to $60,000.

With more than 5,000 total nominations, the two most-nominated nonprofits in Spokane, North Idaho, Wenatchee Valley and Tri-Cities received votes in a social media poll to choose a winner.

Spokane Quaranteam was named the winner in Spokane, followed by The ISAAC Foundation.

“We are honored that Gift Where You Live engaged the community in a big way to give back,” said Nicole Sherman, Numerica’s Chief Operating Officer. “We were able to see firsthand the nonprofits people feel are making the biggest impact in our neighborhoods. It was inspiring to see people share their passion for local causes and work together to make such a meaningful difference.”

In 2021, Numerica is on track to give back more than two million dollars to the communities they serve. Here are the winners of Gift Where You Live in the following regions, followed by the second place winner:

  • NORTH IDAHO: The Furry Farm Rescue, Newby-ginnings
  • TRI-CITIES: The Pit Bull Pen, Grace Kitchen
  • WENATCHEE: The Brave Warrior Project, Wenatchee Pride
