SASCU has always been a strong supporter of arts and culture in the Shuswap. The Arts Council for the South Shuswap is grateful for the granting it receives each year to assist with the delivery of such programs as Music by the Bay and FACES Programming for children and adults in music, dance and theatre. We enjoy seeing SASCU team members volunteering their time to assist with our initiatives and make use of their tents and SASCU swag to ensure our events are successful and most enjoyable!

The Turtle Valley Donkey Refuge has been rescuing and providing for them a loving, permanent home for over 20 years. SASCU Credit Union has been our financial partner every step of the way, providing financial resources, advice and support. Along the way we have been successful in applying for and receiving small and large community grants, the most recent to assist with the completion of our Green Pastures Project to increase the number of fenced and irrigated pastures for our donkeys and mules. Thank you, SASCU, for your ongoing support and encouragement.

I would like to thank SASCU for the generous donation to the Salmon Arm Dog Agility Group which helped our small group put on an awesome Agility Association of Canada BC-YK-VI Regional Championship. With over 300 dogs and their handlers we managed to pull off a fantastic Regional. SASCU also helped with tents which were appreciated by the participants in sun and rain. Some of the comments were: "The best BC Regional's ever!". "Loved the venue and the helpful, friendly people of Salmon Arm." and "When will you be hosting the Regional's again?" Without the generous help from our community and sponsors we would not have been able to pull off such a huge event. Thank you again, SASCU for your help. Becky McMahon Trial Chair
