We are proud to share our 2025 Community Impact Report, highlighting the ways Solarity Credit Union continues to invest in the people, businesses, organizations and communities we serve.

Your membership plays a vital role in this impact. The deposits you entrust to Solarity help fund loans for neighbors, friends and coworkers, supporting homeownership, transportation and other important life moments. This shared investment allows us to provide meaningful financial services while continuing to give back where it matters most through a variety of initiatives:



Expanding our community roots

Solarity remains deeply rooted in Yakima County and the surrounding region, guided by our commitment to grow alongside our members. In 2025, we expanded into Grant County with the opening of our Moses Lake branch. This new location allows us to better serve existing members in the area while welcoming new ones and extending the reach of our cooperative, people-first philosophy.

Supporting local business

This year also marked the launch of Solarity’s Community Business Banking division, created to better support local businesses and fuel economic growth across our communities. By offering tailored financial solutions and relationship-based service, we are strengthening the local business ecosystem and helping employers and entrepreneurs thrive.


Giving back through donations and more

In 2025, Solarity donated more than $94,000 to local nonprofit organizations and community partners. Beyond financial support, our commitment is reflected in the time and energy of our people. This year, Solarity staff volunteered more than 1,500 hours in support of community initiatives, schools and local causes, reinforcing our belief that lasting impact comes from both dollars and dedication.
