We are proud to support the communities we live and work in, a focus that has been underscored annually. Ives Bank employees have volunteered thousands of hours at non-profit agencies yearly. Our commitment to volunteerism extends beyond our employees. Many of our Directors and Corporators volunteer their time. At Ives Bank we place a strong emphasis on community service, team building and cultural activities that promote a positive work environment inside and outside the Bank.
The Bank’s Community Development Officer maintains a list of available volunteer Board positions and current special events activities in our communities.
Community Reinvestment
In 2004, we established the Ives Bank Foundation to support local non-profit agencies that reflect the core values of the Bank. The Foundation provides grants to support a wide range of initiatives and programs in the areas of Affordable Housing, Arts & Culture, Community Services & Economic Development, Education and Health & Human Service. Since its establishment, the Foundation has awarded more than $2.0 million to different organizations.
In addition, the Bank supports hundreds of area agencies with special event donations annually.
