FNBO Renews Commitment to Building Stronger Communities
Announces Impact by FNBO, a strategy that contributes to long-term community success.
OMAHA, Neb. June 17, 2020—Today First National Bank of Omaha (FNBO) announced that it has renewed its longstanding commitment to building stronger communities with the launch of “Impact by FNBO,” the bank’s new community and corporate social responsibility strategy.
“FNBO has always operated with the vision of successful communities in all the places we call home,” announced Alec Gorynski, Vice President, Community Development and Corporate Philanthropy. “Impact by FNBO is our renewed and expanded community strategy that remains committed to that vision and will be leveraged across our seven-state footprint, including Nebraska, Colorado, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, South Dakota and Texas.”
This new strategy follows a recent announcement about the publication of FNBO’s 2019 First in the Community Impact Report, which summarizes the bank’s progress in achieving $85 million in community investments, 100,000 in employee volunteer hours, and specific community goals related to creating/retaining jobs, increasing the availability of affordable housing and bringing individuals closer to self-sufficiency, as defined in its previous “First in the Community” strategy. That previous strategy was designed to run from 2016 through 2019.
Impact by FNBO isn’t limited to a defined timetable, but like its predecessor, it will continue to focus on four community goals in order to provide the greatest impact on the long-term success of the bank’s communities:
”Ultimately, we’re striving to ensure every individual has access to the tools, resources and opportunities needed to reach their goals and improve their overall financial well-being,” Gorynski said.
The bank will work toward these four goals by making investments and delivering solutions across five operational areas:
FNBO will continue to track and report its community investments and the impacts they achieve through its annual impact report.
