Building wealth and achieving financial security is a primary concern for everyone, but many communities face distinct challenges in reaching these goals.
Through conversations with community leaders, elected officials and advocacy groups, U.S. Bank has listened, learned and identified areas where the need is greatest. We’re working to bridge the wealth gap across diverse communities including women, Blacks and the LGBTQ+ community.
