Our Commitment to Community

We are committed to building stronger communities through clear, accessible banking and practical financial education. From teaching kids to save, to helping families create a budget, and supporting seniors in protecting their assets, we provide tools for every stage  of life.

Our commitment goes beyond education – we invest in people and communities through scholarships, donations, grants, and strategic investments that drive community growth, affordable housing, economic development, and small business opportunities.

What We Do For Our Community

Financial Education for Children

We introduce kids to the fundamentals of saving, budgeting, and smart money habits early on. For older children and teens, we go further – teaching work readiness, entrepreneurship, and personal finance skills. We also help them get smart about credit, preparing them to make informed decisions as they enter adulthood.

Financial Literacy & Credit Awareness for Adults and Families

Our programs empower adults and families to take control of their financial futures. We cover essential topics like budgeting, managing debt, building and maintaining credit, and planning for long-term goals – all with culturally relevant approaches that meet people where they are.

We are deeply committed to fostering a supportive community for those facing unique challenges, including individuals rebuilding their lives after hardship or displacement. By partnering with local organizations, we help provide financial literacy, stability, and resources that create a path forward.

Scam & Fraud Prevention and Elder Financial Abuse Awareness

Fraud and exploitation can affect anyone, but seniors are especially vulnerable. We provide education to help individuals recognize, avoid, and report scams – whether online, over the phone, or in person. We also raise awareness about elder financial abuse and offer education and resources and seniors, caregivers, and families to safeguard assets and independence.

Community Partnerships & Small Business Support

We collaborate with Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs) and local nonprofits to strengthen economic opportunities. Through Investments, grants, and donations, we help organizations that empower small businesses and foster community growth – creating a ripple effect of positive impact throughout Salt Lake County.

Our Impact Over the Last 5 Years

In the past few years, our commitment to community has gone beyond words – its measurable. Through partnerships, investments, and volunteer service, we’ve worked to create opportunities and strengthen the communities we serve. Every dollar, every hour, and every collaboration reflects our belief that financial empowerment drives meaningful change.

Community Reinvestment Act Public File

As part of our commitment to transparency and community accountability, we provide public access to our Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) file, outlining how we support inclusive and responsible financial growth.

Why our community commitment matters: Strong communities build strong futures.

Our approach to community engagement is rooted in the belief that financial knowledge creates opportunity. By delivering financial education for youth, families, and seniors – and by partnering with organizations that support small businesses and economic development – we help people move forward with confidence. Stronger communities lead to a more resilient and inclusive future for everyone.
