Working together
Here in Worcester, we are proud to already partner
with local organizations to advance racial equality and
economic opportunity, including:
Family Health Center of Worcester
Ascentria Care Alliance
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 is clear for communities across the country, including where our teammates live and serve our clients.
To drive progress, BankofAmerica 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 that have only been widened by the coronavirus and amplified by the
most recent acts of injustice. Our efforts include:
• connecting workers to new skills and enhanced job readiness
• increasing medical response capacity and access to health care and nutritious food
• powering small businesses owned by people of color through access to capital
• helping people find a place to call home
My teammates and I here in Worcester are committed to doing more, and doing more now.
