Cyprus employees took part in the effort by unloading the Utah Food Bank truck, bagging the goods, and distributing them to the students.

Cyprus was excited to present a donation of $6,000 to TreeUtah on 7/28/2021. TreeUtah plants trees throughout Utah's public spaces and school playgrounds. The organization also focuses on ecological restoration projects along the Jordan River and Wasatch Mountains. The funds for the donation were raised through Cyprus' E-statement promotion, an effort to reduce the Credit Union's paper consumption. During the promotion in 2019 and 2020, both existing and new Cyprus members were given the option to begin receiving their statements electronically rather than by mail. For every member who chose to enroll in e-statements, Cyprus set aside a donation for TreeUtah. With the delivery of those funds this month, Cyprus Credit Union would like to thank its membership for their participation in this initiative and for their green thinking!
