Asset Building

Supporting financial literacy and capability to achieve prosperity

Throughout the region, credit unions are helping their communities by providing financial education, innovative products and services that meet the evolving needs of rural members, guidance on saving for and affording higher education, and assistance when disaster strikes. GoWest Foundation is proud to partner with credit unions who provide these important programs and services. We convene local and regional stakeholders to promote efforts that help under-served and vulnerable communities work toward self-sufficiency and financial security.
