Where You Bank Makes A Difference
As a values-based, cooperative financial institution we work closely with our members, community builders and the small business and non-profit sectors in the communities we serve.
Each year we reinvest 10% of our net profits back into community impact initiatives that empower communities. Initiatives include community development partnerships, capacity-building programming for the non-profit and small business, leadership development for youth, post-secondary scholarships, financial literacy resources, branch donations ($100-500), impact donations ($500+, intakes held in Feb and Aug), sponsorships and patient loans for social enterprises
Our impact focus areas are carefully aligned with our vision to build financially healthy communities and our purpose to empower through knowledge.
- Diversity, Equity and Inclusion: We take action in our communities to create an equitable, inclusive economy that creates opportunity for all, for the long term.
- Environmental Sustainability: We work towards greater sustainability every year by regularly monitoring and thoughtfully decreasing our own impact and emissions while supporting community-based environmental initiatives.
- Local Economic Development: We contribute to resilient and prosperous communities through local engagement, giving and volunteerism.
