Let’s build something together
Bank of America diligently supports the delivery of essential services to neighbors in need throughout Albany-Hudson Valley. We have sponsored local nonprofits that address food insecurity and access to healthcare within low- to moderate-income areas, and we have partnered with nearby academic institutions that provide pathways to careers in healthcare and sustainability for underserved members of our community.
As part of our commitment to driving racial equality and economic opportunity, we also proudly engage community development organizations that empower Black, Hispanic and female entrepreneurs through increased access to funding and mentorship.
Successful transitions for the formerly incarcerated
Since 2009, CEO has advocated for investment in employment-focused reentry support, fair wages and vocational training programs. The organization was founded on the idea that everyone, regardless of their past, deserves the chance to work toward a stronger future for themselves, their families, and their communities. Bank of America support enables the organization to offer 115 people from the Capital Region jobs and skills training, food vouchers and other assistance.
Racial equality and economic opportunity
At Bank of America, we’re committed to addressing the root causes of inequality through a company-wide commitment to advancing racial equality and economic opportunity across diverse communities. We are doing this by building upon our existing efforts and leveraging our strengths: creating more affordable housing and expanding home ownership, increasing lending and support to minority-owned small businesses, championing job training and career readiness and addressing health disparities like access to care. We also know we can’t solve these challenges alone, so we’re partnering with other corporations, local nonprofits and community leaders across the country who share our vision for creating meaningful change.
The power of the arts
At Bank of America, we believe in the power of the arts to help economies thrive, educate and enrich societies, and create greater cultural understanding. That’s why we’re helping the arts flourish in communities across the globe.
