Multipliers for Good

 

Are you ready to create meaningful, positive change in the lives of others?

As Multipliers for Good, we’re dedicated to creating real, lasting change in our communities. Every action reflects our commitment to building a future where people and communities can thrive. Through sponsorships, educational outreach, and meaningful giveback programs, we’re fostering a stronger, more resilient region and helping people flourish, one step at a time.

 

Award-Winning Community Builders

In 2024, we were honored by the four area chambers as the Corporate Citizen of the Year in the Great Lakes Bay Region for significant contributions to regional growth and community development.

 

Promise with Purpose

 

Every dollar collected through the Multipliers for Good Fund goes back to the community.

Dow Credit Union’s Multipliers for Good fund champions vibrant communities by supporting nonprofits through foundation grants. This fosters unity, boosts the local economy, and creates a ripple of kindness that inspires others to pay it forward. Through each act of giving, Multipliers for Good builds a brighter future, strengthening bonds and purpose within the community. By contributing a $10 donation to the Multipliers for Good fund, individuals not only become members but also play a vital role in building the fund that supports regional community initiatives.

 

 

 

 

"The opening line to our mission statement is that we are going to act as a Multiplier for Good, and it's not just a line, it's our true belief. Our employees embrace that by getting out in the community and knowing they are making an impact by helping wonderful organizations that are serving our neighbors."

Dow Credit Union | Multipliers for Good | Featuring Hidden Harvest

 

“Dow Credit Union has been great to collaborate with on behalf of Hidden Harvest. We're so thankful for the volunteer groups that have helped us with different projects in the warehouse, taking bulk food items and breaking them down into family-size items. And these are not just that one-off volunteer projects, but we've had board leadership from Dow Credit Union for years.”

- Samantha Mackenzie, President/CEO, Hidden Harvest

Dow Credit Union | Multipliers for Good | Featuring Saginaw Valley State University

 

“SVSU's Financial Literacy Program is a collaborative near-peer program that brings together local middle-schoolers and university students. This means faculty don't go and teach. It's the students, our students, who go and teach. Our students are developing themselves as mentors and future leaders, and so they are also giving back to the community.”

- Dr. Jayati Ghosh, Dean, Scott L. Carmona College of Business

Dow Credit Union & Habitat for Humanity Team Up as Multipliers for Good to Champion Vibrant Communities

Dow Credit Union & Habitat for Humanity Team Up as Multipliers for Good to Champion Vibrant Communities

 

In a heartwarming display of community spirit, Dow Credit Union teamed up with Midland County Habitat for Humanity and volunteers to help ten local homeowners in Midland County receive up to $15,000 each for essential home repairs.

 

From rooftop renovations to yard enhancements, we brought these homeowners' visions to life. The collective effort that goes into making home improvement projects a reality is worth every moment, especially as completion nears and the immediate positive impact on homeowners and our community becomes evident.

 

Through Dow Credit Union’s Multipliers for Good mission, giving back to the community:

  • Strengthens Community Bonds: Giving back to the community fosters unity and a sense of belonging.
  • Enhances Local Economy: Supporting local initiatives enhances economic growth and improves the overall well-being of the area.
  • Enriches Personal Fulfillment: Making a positive impact provides a sense of purpose and personal satisfaction.
  • Grows Multipliers for Good: Acts of giving and paying it forward inspire others to do the same, creating a ripple effect of kindness and goodwill.
  • Creates a Better Future: Investing in local needs helps address challenges, paving the way for a brighter future and more vibrant communities.

 

Dow Credit Union President and CEO Michael Goad reflects this sentiment perfectly, “Every day I meet people who want to pay it forward to community members who are struggling. I meet more givers than takers.”

 

The gratitude of those we’ve assisted, combined with the dedication of our volunteers, forms an unforgettable bond that embodies the true essence of community. It's about supporting others no matter the circumstances and creating a world where kindness and generosity flourish.
