Community Reinvestment

Committed to Community Reinvestment

At Community West Bank, we support nonprofits that foster economic vitality in low- to moderate-income communities, equitable access to educational resources, and an enriched quality of life for our most vulnerable populations. This support helps meet a wide range of needs within our communities, from financial education to food and housing security, from healthcare to regional revitalization, and so much more. 

We believe in being a collaborative community partner through focused leadership, volunteerism, giving, and financial education. Driven daily by this philosophy, Community West Bank is committed to giving within the following focus areas:

Community & Economic Development

• Reduce food insecurity and fight hunger
• Strengthen communities through economic development, job training, and small business  development
• Support affordable housing, homebuyer education, and homeowner retention
• Provide pathways to stable housing and affordable home ownership

Education and Youth Programs

Health and Human Services

We partner with local organizations that address the economic and social conditions that affect individuals’ health, access to community-based health services and other poverty-related issues. These organizations include those that provide:
