About Potlach No 1 Financial Credit Union
Potlach No 1 Financial Credit Union’s largest recent grants center on education and athletics at Lewis-Clark State College and its athletic department, with awards of $212,165 in 2023, $200,000 in 2024, and $200,000 in 2025. That pattern shows a consistent commitment to a major local institution in Lewiston, alongside support for K–12 schools and youth-serving organizations in the same region. The foundation also directs sizable grants to community infrastructure and public services, including parks, libraries, hospitals, and county-level civic efforts. Across the recent grants list, the funder appears to favor organizations embedded in the Lewiston–Clarkston area and neighboring counties, often supporting operations or community development rather than isolated, one-time projects. Its giving reaches public school systems, college programs, youth development groups, regional healthcare, and safety-net organizations. Recipients such as Boys & Girls Clubs of the Lewis Clark Valley, Independent School District #1, Tri-State Hospital Foundation, Twin County United Way, and local civic agencies show a clear emphasis on institutions that serve residents directly and continuously.
