MyNeighbor contributes to 616 local and global communities

Everence recently helped 3,154 members donate over $548,000 to 616 charitable organizations and congregations through the MyNeighbor program.

“We’re grateful for our credit union members who choose to make a difference through their everyday spending,” said Kristen Heisey, President and CEO of Everence Federal Credit Union. “Each cardholder helps fuel meaningful change in their communities and beyond.”

Since its inception in April 2017, the MyNeighbor program has generated over $3.8 million for congregations, schools and other nonprofits.

With the MyNeighbor program, individuals and businesses generate reward dollars for their favorite nonprofits every time they use their MyNeighbor credit card from Everence Federal Credit Union.

Each time a cardholder buys groceries, pays bills or makes other purchases, Everence will donate 1.50% of the purchase total to the charity of his or her choice. Then in the beginning of the following year, Everence Federal Credit Union writes and sends checks to the selected charities.

As the MyNeighbor program grows, so does the involvement and impact of our nonprofits. One organization, Mennonite Disaster Services, received a notable contribution of over $19,000 from MyNeighbor cardholders in 2025.
