WESTconsin Credit Union’s annual Back to School Supply Drive is underway! Kicking off its 15th year of the drive on Monday, July 24, they will be accepting donations through Saturday, Aug. 5 at 1pm.

Folks can drop off donated school supplies at all WESTconsin offices in the Kindness Counts collection bins near lobby entrances. Monetary donations are also accepted and can be made at any office with a WESTconsin representative or through drive-ups.

100% of all donations received for the back-to-school event will go to families in area communities. 

In 2022, local community partners received a total of 2,052 items along with over $1,200 in monetary donations, which were collected from members and employees.

WESTconsin has offices in the Chippewa Valley from Menomonie to Eau Claire, Altoona to Chippewa Falls, and neighboring areas like Baldwin, New Richmond, and River Falls.
