The NACM Oregon Foundation was established and incorporated on January 1, 1997. The Foundation is an independent, public benefit, non-profit organization that provides scholarship opportunities to credit professionals to assist them in the pursuit of education and training, to achieve professional designation, and to attend national and regional programs and conferences. The Foundation has responsibility for raising and distributing funds to support scholarship opportunities. The Foundation Board of Directors is composed of unpaid volunteers who donate their time to manage Foundation programs. On January 1, 2003, the Foundation became a membership supported and directed non-profit organization. On January 1, 2016, the Foundation changed its name to NACM Northwest Foundation to recognize its expanded geographical scope.
Individual and corporate members of the Foundation are direct contributors to the credit professional development goals of the Foundation. Foundation board members are elected by the Foundation membership at the annual meeting. As a 501(c)3 corporation, membership dues and donations are, in most cases, tax deductible.
