First Federal Savings & Loan has reached out to us to let us know the McMinnville Chess Club is eligible for their annual Customer Ballot community grant, a program that since 1999 has allocated over $1m for organizations specializing in youth development, animal shelters, and more. One of the great things about this program is that each and every not-for-profit that qualifies by receiving at least 15 customer votes will receive a part of the grant. More votes, more funding. How cool is that?
This is our first year that we’re taking part in the program, and our goal is to receive at least 50 votes. We’d love your help!
If you bank at First Federal and feel so inclined, please vote for us and write in the McMinnville Chess Club under the “other“ field. First Federal customers can vote for up to 2 not-for-profits, and voting closes on February 28th.
Our club’s consistent focus on youth development is a part of everything we do. We’re grateful to First Federal for making it so easy for their customers to invest back into their community and directly support the organizations that help make McMinnville an amazing place for youth and their families — and we’re grateful to you, our friends and members!
