Kari Stoltz | President, Bank of America Triangle
The Triangle is your home. It’s ours, too.
We are committed to helping our communities thrive - dedicating our resources to address the issues that matter most in each community where we live and work.
Taking action to support our communities, clients and teammates
Now as always, our commitment to help strengthen the communities we serve is unwavering. We’re partnering with local leaders and organizations to advance racial equality and economic opportunity, support diverse and women entrepreneurs, build job skills and create opportunities to help people succeed in today’s and tomorrow’s economy. We’re investing in benefits and resources for our employees who serve our clients in their communities. And we’re doing our part to protect our planet.
Our presence in more than 90 local markets helps us make a difference across the country.
How we’re boosting the fight against hunger in the Triangle
We’re committed to supporting our employees’ health and safety and to addressing our local communities’ most critical needs. That’s why we donated $100 to local hunger-relief organizations for each Bank of America employee in the U.S. who let us know they’ve received a booster shot.
Through this effort, our team in the Triangle recently presented Food Bank of Central and Eastern North Carolina with a check for $40,000Footnote*. We’re proud to be able to help our community as we work together to move forward.
Let’s build something together
Bank of America has continuously expanded its presence in Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill to meet the growing needs of North Carolina’s innovation-focused Research Triangle. To ensure local economic opportunity is extended to all of our neighbors, we have partnered with public and private sector institutions to provide financial literacy, skills development, and job placement programs to those from low-income communities.
To support the region’s underserved entrepreneurs, we offer mentorship and access to funding to Black, Hispanic and women-owned small businesses — leading to additional growth and job creation within our local economy. In addition, we have helped develop inclusive spaces in our neighborhoods and have proudly invested in the area’s arts and STEM initiatives — including an effort to bring dinosaur fossils to the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences.

Forging a new path to help others like herself
Unfulfilled in her successful career at a prestigious law firm, Anh LyJordan changed paths and founded Raleigh nonprofit that aims to build a supportive community in for first-gen college grads. Her career as a lawyer hadn’t prepared her for entrepreneurship, however, so in 2020 she enrolled in the Bank of America Institute for Women’s Entrepreneurship at Cornell.
Racial equality and economic opportunity
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.
