Bank of America fosters economic opportunity and racial equality in the heart of the Texas panhandle. We have proudly served as anchor sponsors of the Texas Tech University School of Veterinary Medicine as well as the Hispanic-serving institution’s Cultural Competency Program. These initiatives, among others, connect our neighbors to sustainable careers in Amarillo’s thriving agriculture, food processing, and healthcare industries.
We also have long-standing partnerships with economic and community development organizations that expand access to childcare, healthcare and food security for our neighbors in need. In addition, we support programs, which foster young leaders and preserve the history of Amarillo as well as the surrounding plains region.
Skilled agricultural veterinarians are essential to the success of local farms and ranches, and the communities that depend on them. Yet, the number of qualified veterinarians is not keeping pace with the needs of the agricultural industry. What’s more, the profession doesn’t reflect the diversity of the farming communities it serves. To increase the number of vets in this agricultural area of the country, the Texas Tech School of Veterinary Medicine has developed a new program to recruit and train students from underserved communities, with an emphasis on those from Hispanic-Latino backgrounds.
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.
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.
