Members Making Change Drive Raises More than $123,000

Jul 29, 2019 | Transportation

ANCHORAGE—The Alaska USA Foundation launched the sixth annual Members Making Change donation drive, both online and in Alaska USA Federal Credit Union branches. 

The drive raised more than $123,000 from the generous donations of Alaska USA members and employees. This was the second year Alaska USA employees joined in the fundraising efforts through a voluntary payroll deduction, donating $71,700 of the total raised. The Alaska USA Foundation will use the collected funds to assist nonprofit organizations that provide needs-based programs that benefit children, veterans, and active duty military and their families in the communities the credit union serves.

“This year the Alaska USA Foundation completed an amazing milestone, surpassing more than $2 million distributed to charitable organizations,” said Dan McCue, executive director, Alaska USA Foundation. “This wouldn’t be possible without the incredible generosity of Alaska USA members and employees.”

Mapping Whittier’s Future
September 2026

What happens when a city with fewer than 300 residents becomes a major freight and tourism hub, despite being accessible only by boat, plane, or a one-lane highway/railroad tunnel managed on a strict schedule?

If you’re in the City of Whittier, you get busy. The city has two separate transportation planning efforts underway, including a safety action plan under the federal Safe Streets and Roads for All initiative, which focuses on improving safety for pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, and emergency responders. The second is Whittier Moves, the city’s transportation master plan, which serves as the long-term roadmap for growth.
