Forest Park Credit Union Gives to Sisters Of The Road
Forest Park Federal Credit Union’s (FPFCU) Visa credit card is unique and special.

The great news is that anyone anyone supporting or volunteering for Sisters is eligible to join FPFCU.
Not only will you avoid the hassles that big banks are putting you through with constantly changing rates, you also get to do something good for our community. The rates on the Forest Park Federal Credit Union’s Visa are as low as 8.90% APR and they have been that low for years. There is no annual fee and no surprises with this card.

Volunteers of America Vehicle Donation Program
It’s easy to donate your car, truck, van, motorcycle or even a boat to support Sisters through the Volunteers of America Oregon Vehicle Donation Program! Click here or call the VOA vehicle donation hotline at 503-239-7944, and select Sisters Of The Road as your beneficiary.
Volunteers of America will tow your vehicle for free, or you can deliver it yourself! You might even receive greater value (on your itemized tax return) for your vehicle as a charitable contribution than you would selling it.
Does your employer have a workplace employee giving program? Millions of businesses and organizations, large and small, allow you to personally designate Sisters as a beneficiary through automatic donations that are deducted from your payroll. It’s an easy and convenient way to become a regular supporter of Sisters’ work and stay involved! Ask your payroll department or administrator for details.
We are so thankful and honored to be supported by employees at local and national businesses and organizations—thank you!
If you give or are planning on giving to support Sisters’ community and vital work, your employer may have a matching gift program to encourage and support employee giving! Corporate matching gifts help Sisters reach our goals and grow our community everyday.
Ask your employer today if they will match your gift—and if you’re a community-minded business owner who would like to match your employees’ donations, we would love to
answer your questions about getting started. Contact us at (503) 222-5694 ext. 12 for more information.
