Giving back to our community

Heritage Oaks Bank is committed to positively impacting our community through events, education, encouraging staff volunteer activities, and donations.  Heritage Oaks Bank is celebrating 27 years as the largest locally owned community bank on the Central Coast. The continued involvement in the communities we serve will help enhance their economic vitality and social welfare.

To be considered for a charitable contribution from Heritage Oaks Bank, the donation must be directed towards one of these four categories:

• Education
• Youth
• Community Development
• Community Reinvestment Act:
  The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) is intended to encourage financial institutions to help meet the
  needs of the communities in which they operate, including low and moderate income neighborhoods.

In addition, donations must be used to serve the communities within our market place, and it is preferred that donation recipients hold a current IRS non-profit organization 501(c)3 designation¹.
