About Rivermark Community Credit Union

Rivermark Community Credit Union’s largest recent grant went to Community Impact Fund for general assistance, a sign that the credit union’s giving favors flexible support for local organizations rather than tightly restricted project funding. The foundation’s 2025 grants also include sizable awards for Black Economic Collective and multiple Oregon and Southwest Washington nonprofits working on education, immigrant support, housing-related aid, and crisis services. Across the recent grant list, the pattern is clear: Rivermark Community Credit Union directs philanthropic dollars toward frontline community services and basic-needs work, with grants often described simply as general assistance. That approach gives recipients room to cover operating gaps, outreach, and service delivery. Recent grantees include Latino Network, Bradley Angle, The International Carpe Diem Foundation, Street Roots, and Sunshine Division, which together point to a portfolio centered on community stability, racial equity, and direct assistance. The foundation also backs education-related work, including Beaverton Education Foundation, showing that school support sits alongside human services in its grantmaking. With annual grants of $149,561 and a public charity structure, it operates as a modest corporate philanthropist with a practical, community-facing funding style.
