Welcome To All. Working For All.
Promoting Representation
We were founded on the principle of serving communities undermined by discrimination and bias, and our roots are deeply planted in providing opportunities for all. Today, this effort remains our primary focus. Our commitment to serving the community allows us to stay true to our company heritage and founding philosophy of serving the underserved. For 50 years, we've taken an active role in uplifting our communities and grown along with them.
Advocating for Inclusion
Our role is to provide high-quality, affordable financial services to our community and to be inclusive to all minorities, immigrants and underserved populations or groups. That commitment is reflected in the priority we place on creating an inclusive, respectful company culture. This is evident in the diversity of our workforce and leadership, and an environment where all associates can achieve their fullest potential.
Taking Pride
We support our LGBTQ+ associates, both within the workplace and throughout the community. We understand the importance of creating an inclusive culture where everyone has a seat at the table, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.
