Everence Federal Credit Union will donate $16,200 in funds from its unique Rebate for Missions program to the global agencies of The Mennonite and MennoMedia.
The Mennonite is the publication of Mennonite Church USA. Its mission is to help readers glorify God, grow in faith and become agents of healing and hope in our world. MennoMedia, an agency of Mennonite Church USA and Mennonite Church Canada, seeks to engage and shape church and society with resources for living Christian faith from an Anabaptist perspective.
Each year, Everence Federal Credit Union tithes to church and mission work 10 percent of its interchange income from the use of its Visa credit cards. In addition to the amount awarded to the global organizations, a portion is donated to local community charities through branch offices.
Since the Rebate for Missions program began in 1995, Everence Federal Credit Union has given nearly $400,000 in grants.
