Let’s build something together

Grand Rapids is at the center of manufacturing excellence, life science discovery and technological innovation. We have a strong economy, but one that lacks a thriving minority business owner presence. That is why Bank of America spearheaded and invested in partnerships to create incentives for minority-owned businesses to relocate here and provide jobs and career opportunities. We're proud to support local initiatives to employ thousands of youth and young adults through internships with area employers and pathways to sustainable careers for formerly incarcerated women. What's more, we're providing resources to expand programming at the West Michigan Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, advocating entrepreneurship and helping established businesses recover from the health crisis. We also continue our focus on systemic affordable housing challenges throughout West Michigan by providing our time, talent and treasure.

Advancing Racial Equality and Economic Opportunity

The need for real progress on racial and economic inequality in the United States has been accentuated by the impact of the coronavirus on communities of color, and amplified by acts of injustice. We all have a role to play in helping move communities forward – an understanding that forms the foundation of Bank of America’s long-standing commitment to the people and communities it serves. And they’re at the heart of the bank’s $1.25 billion commitment over the next five years to advance racial equality and economic opportunity.

Fueling economic growth through jobs and skills development

The job skills gap has disproportionately affected Black and Latino individuals – and this disparity has been compounded by the coronavirus. To help address this gap, Bank of America works with local nonprofits, employers and broader networks across the country to support skills-training programs that meet the specific workforce demands of local communities. The result is a diverse talent pipeline for employers – and a clear path to employment for individuals.
