for medical and behavioral services for homeless animals and
injured wild animals in their care. Cal Coast has been a key
sponsor of the Humane Society’s very popular Fur Ball gala
for four consecutive years and has also donated high-demand
items such as
concert tickets and
experience-driven
giveaways for their
auction.
In addition to the
corporate support,
the staff at Cal
Coast has raised
thousands of dollars
in their Annual
Walk for Animals
in Escondido and
Liberty Station.
During the walks,
Cal Coast has a
Cal Coast employee
large presence of
over 60 employees along with their family and friends walking in
support. The credit union also offers a “Cash for a Cause” where
Cal Coast donates $25 to the San Diego Humane Society’s
PAWS program for each walker that opens a new account.
Looking ahead into 2019, Cal Coast has launched a series
of free financial workshops for San Diego Humane Society
staff and volunteers. Workshop topics range from money
management to dealing with debt and are designed to help their
staff achieve their financial dreams. Their Community Relations
Department will also host more internal adoption events at
their corporate office for their staff, where San Diego Humane
Society provides free adoption and training resources and are
accompanied by adoptable pet companions in their lunch hour.
The event is a big hit with staff from the Cal Coast headquarters
and has drawn the enthusiastic participation of employees of
nearby companies. It is always exciting to see the Cal Coast
family add new members by adopting a new pet!
In the years ahead, Cal Coast and the San Diego Humane
Society look forward to collaborating on more fundraising
projects to further their shared mission of giving back to the
communities they serve.
