WHO WE ARE
Independent Community Banking Since 1882
Community involvement is not a side initiative at Bank Midwest. It is a core part of who we are. Through our Community Fund, we support meaningful projects that create long-term impact across the towns and cities we serve.
The Bank Midwest Community Fund provides annual grants to local 501(c)(3) organizations that are making a measurable difference. We prioritize initiatives that bring people together and strengthen community life, with a focus on the arts, youth programs, recreation, environmental stewardship, and long-term community betterment.
Funding is awarded once each year through a competitive application process, with proposals due in late May. By supporting locally led efforts, we help ensure that our communities remain vibrant, connected, and positioned for the future.
