Taking action on
our commitment
to Worcester
We know we must do more to address the very
real consequences of systemic racism that exist
in society today. The impact on communities
across the country is clear, including where our
teammates live and serve our clients.
To drive progress, Bank of America has committed
to invest $1 billion over four years to advance racial
equality and economic opportunity, building on
work we've had underway for many years. We're
partnering with community and corporate leaders
to create sustainable change. Our actions will
help address critical issues and long-term gaps,
including:
• connecting workers to new skills and enhanced
job readiness
• increasing medical response capacity and
access to health care
• powering minority-owned small businesses
through access to capital
• helping people find a place to call home they can
both love and afford
We know there's a lot of work to be done, but we
promise to keep listening as we work together on
this shared mission.
