Sponsorships

We’re always looking for ways to make a difference in our communities. Member One gives back through monetary donations, employee volunteering, and service across Southwest and Central Virginia. As one of the largest credit unions in the region, we take our role as a leading community sponsor seriously.

In 2021, we made a $167,000 commitment to our Southwest and Central Virginia communities. Those funds supported nearly 100 non-profit organizations—contributing to the flourishing of the arts and to the advancement of sustainability in our region, helping to provide health and human services to area residents in need, and bolstering development programs for local youth.

Here's just a few of the organizations we are proud to sponsor.
