We believe education opens doors to opportunity, stability, and meaningful careers. That’s why we offer scholarships that help students—from trade programs to advanced degrees—take their next step with confidence. Through this support, we’re investing in bright futures and empowering more learners to pursue the paths that inspire them.
We believe meaningful community events bring people together, spark connection, and strengthen our region. That’s why we sponsors local fundraisers, events, and galas. We give priority to those that align with our pillars of philanthropy: financial literacy, affordable housing, youth and young adult education, and workforce development. To be considered, organizations must be a 501(c)(3) and submit requests at least 90 days before the event.
