2023 Numerica Charitable Fund recipients

The Numerica Charitable Fund distributed more than $315,000 to 19 nonprofits this year.

Grants focus on children and families

This year’s grants went to organizations that align with the credit union’s new philanthropic initiative, Numerica CARES for Kids.

As part of the announcement, Numerica also pledged $100,000 each to 4 nonprofits through multi-year grants. ($25,000 for each will be distributed through the 2023 Charitable Fund.)

Family Promise, Spokane
Safe Passage, North Idaho
Women’s Resource Center, Wenatchee
Communities in Schools of Benton-Franklin, Tri-Cities

These commitments reflect special partnerships aimed at building brighter futures for local youth.

“Numerica CARES for Kids means focusing resources to organizations that uplift children and families,” said Carla Cicero, Numerica president and CEO. “When times are tough, we’ve seen how these 19 nonprofits wrap themselves around families in need. Through Numerica’s Charitable Fund we are proud to support organizations who are making an impact in the lives of others.”

Distributing the grants

Numerica team members surprised the nonprofits with customized mini ATMs. The ATMs revealed the amount the organization was granted. The funds will be used to provide housing, meals, education, and more.

"Year after year, Numerica goes above and beyond to not just give financially, but to truly partner with Family Promise to end the cycle of homelessness for families,” said Emma Hughes, Family Promise outreach and recruitment director. “This year's gift of $25,000 will change the lives of children staying in our emergency shelter by providing fun, kid-centric summer programs. We couldn't be more thankful!"
