As members of the Alaska Credit Union League, several credit unions also supported the Upper Susitna Food Pantry through individual donations. The additional donors including Spirit of Alaska Federal Credit Union with a donation of $1,000, Matanuska Valley Federal Credit Union with a $2,000 donation, and Alaska USA Foundation and Credit Union 1 with a donation of $2,080 each.

The Upper Susitna Food Pantry serves the needs of the community that covers approximately 900 square miles. On a daily basis, the Food Pantry provides individuals who reside in Sunshine, Talkeetna, Chase, Trapper Creek, and Upper Caswell Lakes with needed supplemental food supplies that help to alleviate food insufficiency.
