Our Philosophy

At Bank of America, we are committed to creating meaningful change in the communities we serve through our philanthropic efforts, associate volunteerism, community development activities and investing, support of arts and culture programming and environmental initiatives.

Grant Programs

We are helping to advance the economic health and vitality of communities by supporting nonprofit organizations that address community development, education and workforce development and critical needs.

Working in partnership with community leaders, Bank of America's local market leadership directs the majority of our giving through local grants that address pressing social, economic, and cultural needs of communities across our global footprint. In addition, we partner with national organizations such as the United Way Worldwide and Habitat for Humanity International to direct resources to local communities. Through signature philanthropic programs such as our Neighborhood Builders® and Student Leaders®, we are investing in leaders and giving them the tools and resources to do more.
