Giving for Good
Giving never felt so good!
A donation of one dollar a month may not seem like much but imagine the impact if each Broadview member participated in the credit union’s Giving for Good program and donated $12 each year.
Through the support of our members and employees enrolled in Giving for Good, we’re able to build on our investments and provide quick assistance to organizations when they need it the most.
Seeking Support?
Broadview supports non-profits in our communities in a number of ways.
We focus on investments that create impact with opportunities to collaborate, share resources, and most importantly, become better partners.
Before requesting funding, please review eligibility and our areas of focus.

Freight Farm
What is a Freight Farm?
It is a 40-foot hydroponic growing container that allows anyone, anywhere, at any time, to be a farmer. For many years, Broadview has farmed in these containers and donated thousands of heads of lettuce to local non-profits to help fight hunger.
In addition, we have deployed Freight Farms to the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Capital Area in Troy, the City Mission of Schenectady, and the Regional Food Bank of NENY to help them grow nutritious produce for the individuals they serve as well as sell the produce to provide revenue to fuel their respective missions.
Community Impact Report
In 2025, Broadview Federal Credit Union provided over $4.5 million in support to nonprofit organizations throughout the communities we serve in New York state.
The Community Impact Report highlights just a few of the many local nonprofits that make our corner of the world a better place.
We cannot do this alone with simply our credit union’s community support investments. Much thanks goes to all the generous members and employees who participate in the Giving for Good Program and our Broadview employees who tallied nearly 29,000 volunteer hours during the year.
