| What
is the Community Recreation Association (CRA)? |
The
Community Recreation Association (CRA) is a non-profit organization,
established to promote and support recreation activities in
our communities.
Originally organized on April 2, 1942 by a group of Kennecott
employees, the CRA donated uniforms and equipment to Magna little
leagues and hosted numerous community events.
In 1978 the CRA was added to Cyprus Credit Union’s field
of membership. Today, the Community Recreation Association’s
volunteer Board of Directors regularly grants donation requests
to little leagues, recreation centers, theater and dance groups,
and community events. |

| How
does it work? |
Coaches,
team leaders, or group participants are asked to submit a funding
request application for their specific needs. The application
can be mailed, faxed, or emailed to the CRA board. Applications
will be reviewed and awarded on a monthly or quarterly basis,
depending on the need. All applications will receive notification
of acceptance or denial within a specified time frame.
More than one application may be submitted each year, however,
you will not be awarded more than one donation every six months. |
