People Helping People
Founded in 2003, the United Heritage Charity Foundation was developed as a 501(c)(3) to support projects and organizations within local communities. Benefiting local charities, including organizations focused on family support services, healthcare, education initiatives as well as military and veteran assistance efforts, the Charity Foundation's top priority is contributing to deserving organizations that positively impact Central and East Texas to make a difference in people’s lives. United Heritage Charity Foundation epitomizes the credit union philosophy of "People Helping People," which is why each year we work with organizations who are striving to make our communities a better place to live, work and attend school.
Breast Cancer Resource Center
Our donation partner for the second quarter of 2023
Each quarter United Heritage Charity Foundation focuses on partnering with an organization that ties to our Areas of Focus. From April to June, we highlight the importance of healthcare and medical services that make an impact in our local community. The Charity Foundation is excited to collaborate with the Breast Cancer Resource Center and support its mission of providing services free of charge to anyone affected by breast cancer in the Central Texas area. As BCRC’s Mission Sponsor for Art Bra Austin, UHCF contributed $25,000 to the May 13 event, which resulted in over $500,000 raised for BCRC. For more information, visit https://bcrc.org/.

To optimize our efforts, the Charity Foundation supports organizations whose focus includes one or more of a few specific areas outlined here:
Family Support Services
Focus Season: January - March
Encouraging the relationships between a parent/guardian and a child, whenever possible, is an important way to help families and individuals feel self-sufficient. Family Support Services help to address the general population and target specific groups to best serve local citizens.
Healthcare
Focus Season: April - June
Healthcare has been and will continue to be an important aspect of our culture. The Charity Foundation understands the impact that healthcare and medical research have on our communities.
Education
Focus Season: July - September
With a belief that our children remain our single greatest resource, the United Heritage Charity Foundation is a strong supporter of education initiatives for young people. By giving today’s youth every opportunity for success, our communities will grow and prosper.
Military & Veteran Assistance
Focus Season: October - December
The United Heritage Charity Foundation feels it is important to support our military and veterans in as many ways as possible to show our appreciation of their many sacrifices. This is also a nod to United Heritage Credit Union's history, as it originally started as a military credit union.
