TwinStar Credit Union donated $1,070 to the Nisqually Land Trust to support reforestation of Chinook salmon habitat along the Nisqually River. 

The contribution resulted from a promotion TwinStar operated this summer to encourage members to switch from paper monthly statements to eStatements, which are delivered to members’ computers via the credit union’s website.

Exactly 1,070 TwinStar Credit Union members switched during the campaign. TwinStar earmarked $1 for the Nisqually Land Trust for each eStatement registration.

TwinStar members who switched to eStatements will use approximately 128,400 fewer sheets of paper in the next five years. 

The Nisqually Land Trust owns and manages 3,400 acres of land in the Nisqually watershed, stretching from Mt. Rainier National Park to the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge on the Puget Sound. 

“TwinStar took an innovative approach to help people understand the impact they can have with just minor changes to lifestyle,” said Joe Kane, Nisqually Land Trust Executive Director. “Their contribution will result in long lasting and durable natural protections in the Yelm area.”

The Nisqually Land Trust acquires and manages critical lands to permanently protect the natural resources of the Nisqually River watershed.  Volunteer opportunities are always available.
