Banking on Kindness
Feeding the hungry, building homes and funding healthy communities.
We bank on kindness.
The Bank of New Hampshire team is committed to putting our money where our mouth is when it comes to being the state’s leader in community banking. Our Banking on Kindness Initiative is dedicated to leveraging our team and finances to better the communities where we live, work and play. We are about more than just cutting checks – we’re about getting out in our communities and supporting the organizations that are making a difference in the lives of those we serve.
In the last year alone we contributed:
$900,000 invested.
2,600 hours of service.
242 organizations supported.
What kind of help do you need?
Receive Funding
We’re focusing on Affordable Housing in 2025! The Contributions Committee will give priority to organizations and/or projects/programs that align with this current focus.
The Bank of New Hampshire Contributions Committee meets on a quarterly basis to review applications for donations from organizations throughout the state. Fill out the application below to be considered.
Get Sponsored
Applications for sponsorships are also reviewed on a quarterly basis. The event date must be at least 30 days after the notification date for the current quarter to allow sufficient time for processing and deliverables. Sponsorship requests are considered equally with a priority given to organizations with a banking relationship and/or employee volunteer/board connection.
Volunteer Requests
Bank of New Hampshire has maintained a strong legacy of community service through countless hours invested by our employees. If your organization is in need of volunteers for a specific event or initiative, you can request volunteers from Bank of New Hampshire.
