About The Grant

At Bank of America, we’re guided by a common purpose to help make financial lives better. Through our focus on Responsible Growth, we deliver for our teammates, clients and shareholders, while also addressing the needs of individuals and families in the communities where we live and serve.


We drive meaningful and sustainable progress by bringing the full power of the bank together to advance economic mobility – this includes strong partnerships with nonprofit organizations and programs that align with our commitment to support economic opportunity for all.


Our Priorities: 

  • Basic needs

  • Income creation

  • Stable housing

  • Empowered communities


All thriving communities start with meeting the individual basic needs of its members. That starts with ensuring certainty when it comes to shelter, food and health.

As basic needs are established, individuals can focus on development through mentoring, skill building,  work experience and entrepreneurial growth. 


These activities enable the creation of income for both the individual, as well as those they serve and employ. Income creation and access to affordable housing allows individuals to find stability through stable housing in neighborhoods where connections are further strengthened.


Stable, skilled, connected individuals contribute to the growth of empowered communities that give back to their neighborhoods, address systemic issues head on and ensure the longevity of where they call home. This is growth.
