Jeneen Marziani | President, Bank of America Cleveland

Hear from Jeneen Marziani, President of Bank of America Cleveland, about our role in keeping Cleveland moving forward.

Let’s build something together

Across the state of Ohio, Bank of America is focused on addressing the needs of our customers, clients, employees and communities. Each member of our team is here to listen and learn what is most important to our clients. And then we try to help them reach their goals. This past year has been extraordinarily challenging, but we continued to open new retail banking locations and hire talented people to serve our customers’ banking needs, all the while supporting our communities. We’ve partnered with nonprofits that help our neighbors most in need. We’ve provided personal protection equipment for first responders, frontline workers and others to ensure our communities’ safety. Workforce development and skill building, notably in communities of color, continues to be one of our primary areas of support, with career-pathway partnerships at local colleges and nonprofit organizations.

Opportunities for entrepreneurs

The Northeast Ohio Center for Economic Development is providing training, support and affordable retail space to help local start-ups flourish in a new business and cultural hub in Cleveland's Clark-Fulton neighborhood. When the 32,500 square-foot multi-purpose space called CentroVilla25 is fully renovated, it will house a commercial kitchen, 20 retail stalls, coworking areas, a specialty grocer and an outdoor plaza. The goal is to create a space where local entrepreneurs can find everything they need for small business development.

Getting the job is just the first step

Initially set up to serve 349 job seekers facing high barriers to success, Towards Employment seeks to help individuals, many of whom are from minority and underserved neighborhoods, find a job and build a career. Their methods have proven successful in the past thanks to local partnerships with companies in high-demand industries. Now, they’re aiming to expand their WorkAdvance program to serve at least 1,200 residents of underserved communities to help even more members of their community find economic independence.
