Bank of America is proud to serve The Biggest Little City in the World, and we have focused on supporting initiatives that drive workforce development and job creation throughout northern Nevada. To this end, we have partnered with local business leaders, economic development organizations, government agencies and community nonprofits to ensure Reno’s growth benefits all those who live and work here.
That’s why we have supported local academic institutions and nonprofit organizations that provide scholarships and internships to underserved youth and first-generation college students. To empower our small business community, we have offered mentorship and financial literacy training to local entrepreneurs. And to help our neighbors who are most in need, we have sponsored and provided volunteer support to organizations that address access to affordable healthcare, housing and food security across our service areas.
An early start for college prep in Reno, Nevada
The Dean’s Future Scholars (DFS) program at the University of Nevada, Reno has made graduation a reality for many low-income, first-generation college students in the Reno/Sparks community. By providing one-on-one attention, the program has successfully served roughly 1,400 young people since its inception 20 years ago, nine out of 10 of them Black and Latino students. The results have been impressive, with 95% of participants graduating from high school over the past five years. Funding from Bank of America helps support this transformative, pre-college intensive program.
Supporting economic opportunity for diverse people & communities
At Bank of America, we have a long-standing commitment to support economic opportunity for diverse people and 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 continue to focus on working collaboratively across sectors to advance opportunities that will create real impact in the lives of individuals and for the communities we serve, using the past to inform our perspective and understanding as we tackle barriers within our communities.
Creating access to jobs
To help create jobs and fuel economic opportunity, we're partnering with local organizations and other companies to help people get the skills they need and build a growing pipeline of talent for jobs of the future.
