What people are saying about us

Interior Savings celebrated its commitment to the community on October 20th, 2017 by closing their branches at 2pm to allow employees to volunteer in their community. COHS was lucky to be chosen as one of the recipients of this much needed volunteer work in Benvoulin Heritage Park. Interior Savings volunteers, along with COHS Board members weeded and cleaned up a section of the xeriscape garden and the driveway into the park. Thank you Interior Savings for giving back to the community!

We appreciate the ongoing support of Interior Savings staff who volunteer during Days of Caring and the Interior Savings Moonlight Movies. Their commitment to Okanagan Boys and Girls Clubs truly help us provide our young people with a safe place to belong where great futures start!

Interior Savings is a community champion. They continue to be a leader in the community as is evident by their community mantra: "We measure success by the success of our members and the strength of the communities we live in together. Simply, we’re here to help our members create more local money. Because the more we create together, the more vibrant our economy and our communities become." They walk the talk. We are so very proud to be a valued partner of such a wonderful organization!

It's not the way our cheque presentations usually look... but it doesn't make it any less important!

Today we helped Wentworth Music present $15,724.81 to the KGH Foundation! This money will go towards purchasing sleeper chairs for the Pediatrics unit so parents can be at their children's side, instead of having to sleep on stretchers.

With a little help from our Community Relief Fund, Kamloops Brain Injury Association was able to purchase laptops and headsets to help stay connected with those they serve. A huge thank you Kamloops Brain Injury Association for all of the work they do to support our community!

Although there's no doubt that the ending of their senior year didn't turn out quite as many grads had hoped, we had the pleasure of letting 618 local students know that they would be receiving $1000 to go towards their tuition payment in the fall!
In light of COVID-19, we also extended the qualification period to mid-August (and loosened the eligibility criteria) for another 161 students who may now need a bit more time to qualify.

Though applications will be accepted for a few more days, we’re pleased to announce the first round of successful applicants. Read our blog to learn more about the well deserving non-profits and how they plan to use their funds.

During these unprecedented times some the most impacted are the non-profit organizations who support our communities with vital programs and services. Not only are they seeing an increased demand for their services, but also an increase in costs as they modify their operations to serve those in need.

Local money for local good is something we're passionate about at Interior Savings, which is why we're launching the Community Relief Fund. We're committing $150,000 to help those who do so much for our collective well-being.
