Joel Madsen

*Article printed by The Dalles Chronicle 11/9/2017

INB in support of the Community Reinvestment Act, enacted by Congress and intended to encourage depository institutions to help meet the credit needs of the communities in which they operate, recently presented $1,000 to CCHC for our active involvement in providing housing throughout the Columbia Gorge.

Joel Madsen, our Executive Director,  was quoted as saying “INB have been grat partners with CCHC and MCHA as we work to achieve our mission.  Not only is NIBs team extremely knowledgeable, they are constantly exuding their commitment to serving our local communities.  We look forward to future opportunities with INB in expanding affordable housing opportunities for our Gorge communities.”
