We're committed to supporting our employees' health and safety and to addressing our local communities' most critical needs. That's why we've donated to local hunger-relief organizations on behalf of each employee who received a COVID-19 vaccine or booster and/or a flu shot.* In addition, employees are doubling the impact of their personal donations to fight hunger with our matching gifts program.
Through this effort, our team in Memphis recently presented Mid-South Food Bank with a check for $25,000. We're proud to be able to help our community as we work together to move forward.

Bank of America partners with academic, corporate, government and nonprofit leaders to drive economic advancement in Memphis. We support high-performing organizations, which provide innovation capital, mentorship and skills development programs that prepare our neighbors for the marketplace of the future.
In this hub of entrepreneurship, we help small business owners thrive through expanded access to funding, financial education and technical assistance. We also support initiatives that advance neighborhood revitalization and challenge barriers to home ownership. We are dedicated to leading racial equality initiatives – including convening conversations regarding diversity and inclusion within Memphis’ business ecosystem.
In Memphis, a six-month bootcamp called Code School helps young adults from underserved communities get the coding education they need to qualify for careers in software development. Begun in July 2018 by CodeCrew, a local technology education nonprofit, this full-time program teaches the skills necessary to become a software developer, then partners with local employers looking for tech talent — emphasizing support of African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos and women and girls.
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.
