Mid Oregon’s Annual Holiday Dough

Each year, Mid Oregon Credit Union’s annual fundraiser, Holiday Dough shows local generosity, of our members and Central Oregon. In 2020 almost $9,000 was raised, the most ever. This year, we are on pace to exceed that amount, with two weeks to go!

Mid Oregon Credit Union is encouraging the communities we serve to contribute to our annual fundraiser, Holiday Dough supporting local charities. The chosen Central Oregon organizations provide food, clothing and shelter for individuals and families in greatest need during the holidays.

If you haven’t already donated, it’s not too late! The needs for this season are greater than ever. With anticipated spending this holiday season to exceed last year by 38%, we hope to surpass last years donations.

Members and the general public can stop by any Mid Oregon branch to make a Holiday Dough donation. You can use cash or check through November 30, 2021.
