Community Involvement

Making a local difference.

For more than 200 years, we have been committed to making an impact in the communities we serve. Through sponsorships, partnerships and volunteerism, we work hand-in-hand with our neighbors to foster growth within our local economies, support rich and vibrant culture and create opportunities that benefit everyone.

We are proud to collaborate with local businesses and organizations to support initiatives that promote economic growth, enhance educational opportunities and bring people together. Through our partnerships, we amplify our collective efforts — supporting experiences that resonate throughout the communities we serve.

Our associates dedicate their time and talents to a variety of volunteer efforts throughout the year. From participating in our annual Work of Heart week, where employees spend a day volunteering with local organizations, to ongoing support for community initiatives, we are committed to making a lasting impact outside the office.

Building a meaningful connection.

At Five Star Bank, we take great pride in our collaborative and hands-on approach to giving back and we seek to partner with organizations across our full footprint who share our commitment to serving our communities and the many people who call them home.

Alongside our team’s volunteer efforts and community outreach work, we are pleased to provide important funding to non-profits best equipped to address critical needs in our local communities. We also sponsor arts, cultural and educational events that enrich our neighborhoods. We believe that by keeping the well-being of those around us at the heart of everything we do, we can help others thrive and realize their dreams.

We take great pride in always lending a hand where it's needed most. By knowing the unique challenges and opportunities across our footprint, we are able to support initiatives that address immediate needs while also laying the groundwork for long-term prosperity. This commitment is what guides us every day.
