Credit Union Donates $7,500 to Help At-Risk Youth

Advantis Credit Union believes education and learning can lead to incredible possibilities. Thats why Advantis recently donated $7,500 to non-profit Friends of the Children, funding scholarships for at-risk youth to further their education and vocational training. The scholarships will help youth facing poverty, unstable home lives, and other challenging circumstances achieve greater opportunities. This is the second year Advantis has supported the scholarship program at Friends of the Children, a non-profit organization that provides Portlands most vulnerable children with intensive and long-term mentoring and resources throughout their K-12 school years.� PHOTO: Advantis Credit Union President/CEO Bob Corwin and Vice President of Marketing Wendy Edwards present a check to Terri Sorensen, President of Friends of the Children, to support the non-profits college scholarship program.
