About Linda Kleppe-Olson
For 21 remarkable years (1988 – 2009), we were privileged to have Linda Kleppe-Olson as the President/CEO of White River Credit Union. Linda dedicated over 37 years to the credit union industry, embodying the motto “not for profit, not for charity, but for service” in every aspect of her work.
Born and raised in Buckley, WA, and a proud White River High School graduate, Linda always prioritized community service and the importance of education, especially financial literacy. To honor her retirement in 2009 and her remarkable service, White River Credit Union awards a $500 scholarship annually to graduating seniors from White River and Enumclaw High Schools.
