Interior Savings presented Interior CarShare Co-operative (InCar) with the cheque at an InCar info session.

“Initiatives like carsharing align well with our mission of supporting sustainable community development,” says Gene Creelman, Interior Savings’ Senior VP of Member and Community Engagement.

In addition to its financial support, Interior Savings has become an organizational member of InCar, joining Urban Systems, Kamloops Innovation and other businesses.

InCar still needs a few more members to sign up before it can start operations, said Houlihan. To find out more about becoming an individual, family or business member, visit http://www.interiorcarshare.ca or contact info@interiorcarshare.ca.
