Our Commitment to Community Investment

In 2025, we were grateful for the opportunity to invest more than $1.2 million back into the communities we're honored to serve. These investments supported scholarships, donations, Advancing Lives Grants, sponsorships, and many other local initiatives that help people thrive.

Each dollar represents a person, a family, or an organization whose work strengthens our communities, and we're excited to continue walking alongside them in the year ahead.

Over 200 Community Events and Sponsorships

By investing over $360,000 in local schools, community enrichment, non-profit organizations, and economic development events, we're not only enhancing overall brand awareness, but also fostering stronger connections with younger generations, ensuring our brand resonates with our current and future members.

Responding to Community Need

We were proud to share that $40,800 of Advia’s financial contributions were directed to local food pantries, helping them respond to the urgent rise in need following nationwide SNAP benefit reductions in November 2025. These grants empowered pantries to purchase food in bulk and provided essential support to families experiencing hardship. Stephanie McNees, Executive Director of Fish and Loaves in Taylor, shared at the time, “Since the SNAP benefit cuts, we’ve seen a heartbreaking surge in families reaching out, many for the first time, desperate to put food on the table… Advia’s generous gift will help us purchase more than four thousand five hundred pounds of food, an essential lifeline as we work to meet this overwhelming demand.”

Adaptive Alliance - Janesville, Wisconsin

Thanks to an Advancing Lives Grant, Adaptive Alliance was able to purchase a reliable vehicle that now enables their program participants to explore and engage with their community more fully. As they shared with us:

"Advia Credit Union has become a large part of our Adaptive Alliance family. What once started as a community partnership has grown into a three-time­a-year visit of friendship and community integration. We will forever be thankful for the opportunity to apply for and be awarded the Advancing Lives Grant and the impact it has had on our Adaptive family."

2025 Youth Scholarship Winners

In addition to supporting nonprofits, the Advia Foundation proudly invests in the future of our youth through scholarships.

"Receiving this scholarship has helped me pursue my education and also inspired me to give back to my community in the future. I'm incredibly grateful for the support and recognition [from] Advia Credit Union."

- Daniel Czerwinski, 2025 Youth Scholarship Recipient

"I will be forever grateful for the generous scholarship that was awarded me. College is expensive, and I'm so grateful to be supported by my community. Advia is not just my bank anymore, but now an investor in my future. Thank you to everyone who makes this scholarship possible so people like me can achieve their dreams with less financial stress on their shoulders."
