Two area projects received a financial boost courtesy of Fusion Credit Union’s Full Circle Fund.
The Full Circle Fund, established by the credit union in 2019 to help their members and communities, has granted $25,000 towards Winnipegosis Curling Rink upgrades and $15,000 to the Watson Auditorium cooling project through it’s spring intake.
“The Full Circle Fund is our way to fairly, and transparently support worthy projects across our communities,” said Mike Csversko, Brand and Business Development manager at Fusion.
With two application intakes each year, organizations can apply for funding to help improve or get their project off the ground.
A committee of Fusion executives, employees and board members are involved in the review process.
“There are so many people doing great things in our communities, it really is impressive” Csversko said.
Since its debut in 2019, the Full Circle Fund has committed more than $920,000 to 172 community projects in the Parkland and southwestern Manitoba.
Standing true to their tagline, Csversko added, Fusion Credit Union and the Full Circle Fund are Here for Good.
This year’s spring intake awarded a total of $89,900 to 15 recipients.
“The Full Circle Fund program is something we are very proud of,” Csversko said.
“We are changing lives and building stronger communities because of the support of our members. What goes around, truly comes back Full Circle.”
