NLCU invites credit union members, family, friends, and businesses in our communities to join us in supporting the 22nd Annual Walk-A-Thon of the
NLCU Charitable Foundation (NLCU CFC). The Annual Walk-A-Thon will be held between June 29 and July 13, 2025.
The charity of choice this year is Special Olympics Newfoundland and Labrador. We are asking for your kind support. All donations are tax deductible. Click

Special Olympics Newfoundland & Labrador (SONL) is a non-profit organization dedicated to enriching the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities through sport. It operates across the province through 14 community-based clubs, supported by a dedicated network of coaches, volunteers, and community leaders. As the charity of choice, Special Olympics Newfoundland and Labrador will receive 50% of the funds raised, up to a maximum of $10,000. These funds will be used for a variety of local events, as well as helping the provincial team, Team NL, with their training camps as they prepare to take on Canada’s best at the Special Olympics Canada National Summer Games, taking place in Medicine Hat Alberta in August of 2026.
Remaining proceeds from the Annual Walk-A-Thon go to the NLCU CFC for distribution to other local charities in Newfoundland and Labrador.
NLCU established the NLCU Charitable Foundation in 2002. NLCU’s Board of Directors and employees are dedicated NLCU CFC volunteers and will be hosting their own walks across the province in support of this year’s Walk-A-Thon.
