We don't just talk about change; we make it happen
At Solarity, we believe in action, not just words. That's why we are proud to present our annual Community Impact Report – a testament to our unwavering commitment to the communities of Yakima and Kittitas Counties, as well as the surrounding areas we proudly serve.
From providing our members with keys to their forever homes to supporting critical causes through donations and sponsorships, our journey this past year was all about making a positive difference. But that's not all. Our incredible staff also dedicated their time and energy to volunteer initiatives that warmed hearts and brightened lives.
We look forward to sharing the remarkable stories and achievements that define Solarity's role as a force for good in our neighborhoods for many years to come.

Last minute $5,000 donation from Solarity makes holiday dinner happen for Selah firefighters
Solarity Credit Union donated $5,000 to sponsor a banquet for 175 current and retired Selah firefighters and their families at the Selah Civic Center. Partnering with Fat Pastor Productions, a culinary collaborative in the Yakima Valley known for its
support of community and civic organizations, Solarity’s donation helped provide a fabulous meal for our community heroes.
A community member reached out to Fat Pastor to make them aware that the Selah firefighters’ holiday party didn’t have a budget for food. “They wanted to make sure that our heroes felt the love and appreciation they deserved, and we
couldn't help but jump at the chance to join them,” says Shawn Niles, owner and CEO of Fat Pastor Productions.
Yet they couldn’t put on an incredible feast without community partners. Enter Solarity who learned of the need on Wednesday, December 14, on the day of the event. Solarity proudly became the presenting sponsor, donating $5,000 to ensure the delicious meal would happen.
“I am always blown away by the support from our community for the various projects we get to participate in” Niles says. “And my goodness, Solarity Credit Union came through in an enormous way. We are so proud to call them our Presenting Sponsor.”
The lovely dinner spread consisted of some Christmas stables including cranberry salad, prime rib, mashed potatoes and rum cake for dessert.
