Creating a lasting impact.
The STCU Here for Good Foundation is an amplifier of community impact, building on collective efforts to create greater effect across the communities we serve.
Donate to wildfire recovery efforts.
STCU’s Here for Good Foundation is currently encouraging donations to assist those impacted by regional wildfires. All funds donated are tax deductible and will be distributed in partnership with the Spokane Complex Wildfire Response Fund at Innovia to benefit local non-profit organizations supporting rebuild and recovery efforts in local communities.
All donations to STCU’s Here for Good Foundation will be matched by STCU, up to a total of $100,000.
We initiate, champion, and nurture partnerships and cooperative efforts across sectors, taking a community‑wide approach to addressing agreed‑upon critical issues through action, support, and advocacy. This purpose guides how the Foundation shows up and how we invest.
How we create impact.
We are a community convenor.
The Foundation brings together stakeholders across sectors to foster partnerships and collaboration that drive meaningful, lasting change. By creating space for shared learning and alignment, we help turn individual efforts into collective action.
We are an impact driver.
Through flexible financial support and thought leadership, the Foundation supports work in three key areas:
- Education.
- Arts and culture.
- Economic development.
These focus areas reflect where coordinated effort can strengthen communities and expand opportunities.
We build communities.
By building bridges, listening deeply, and encouraging collective action toward shared goals, the Foundation helps communities move forward together, responding to immediate needs while also investing in long‑term solutions.
Here for good.
The Here for Good Foundation ensures STCU’s commitment to community impact continues into the future. Grounded in local insight and strengthened through collaboration, the Foundation exists to support the people and organizations working every day to make our region stronger.
Together, we are here for good.
