About True Community Credit Union
A recurring pattern in True Community Credit Union’s giving is long-horizon support for local institutions and community projects in Jackson. One of the clearest examples is a $33,333 grant in 2025 to Jackson School of the Arts, listed as year 4 of 4 of a multi-year pledge for capital campaign/building support. That same year, the credit union also gave $20,000 to Jackson College Multicultural Affairs for a Juneteenth event sponsor and student scholarships, showing that its philanthropy mixes building support, education, and community celebrations. The credit union’s recent grants also show a strong preference for direct, place-based support in Jackson County. Found Church received $35,000 in 2025 for the Black Excellence Awards sponsor and Isaiah’s Hub renovation project, while Jackson YMCA received $26,000 in 2025 as a charitable contribution. These awards sit alongside sponsorships, scholarships, and community donations tied to local organizations and events. Across the record, True Community Credit Union funds community development, education, housing, financial wellness, and local nonprofit support, with most grants staying close to its Michigan footprint.
