In the heart of our communities, you’ll find the true foundations of our strength. The teachers who inspire our children and the skilled millworkers who craft the very materials that shape our world. These are the founding members of TwinStar and Northwest Community Credit Union. People dedicated to building a brighter future, board by board, lesson by lesson. From sawdust trails to school hallways, from saving for a child’s future to securing a first home, we’re by your side.
Our vision builds upon that foundation to cultivate a profound sense of belonging that resonates throughout our communities, as our membership evolved beyond wood products and teachers. Building community isn’t just a belief — it’s a promise. It’s about recognizing the invisible threads that connect us all. When we belong to our community, we empower our members to transform financial stress into the freedom that serves as a building block for their dreams.
Peak shows up in the community in many ways. First and foremost, we literally show up through volunteering at local nonprofits and sponsored events that support our communities. We also give back financially through direct donations.
Peak shows up in our members’ community because it’s our community too. It’s where we live, work and play.
We believe the work that Partners in Diversity does is a great way to help our community in our journey to build belonging. They help newcomers and people of color in Oregon and Southwest Washington adapt and thrive, while also supporting local organizations in hiring and engaging more diverse talent.
By partnering with them, we aim to be a financial institution that helps newcomers and underrepresented communities feel more at home and better supported as they settle into our community.
