Green Bay, Wis.-based Associated Banc-Corp recently announced it will invest $141,000 in three organizations across Green Bay and the broader Fox Valley while the Associated Bank Foundation invests $300,000 in grants to the Bellin (Wis.) Health Foundation through 2027.
The foundation’s investment will be allocated to the Bellin Health Foundation and Bellin College through a $125,000 grant to the Bellin Health Children & Adolescent Center to develop youth mental health consultation rooms. Associated Bank will have branding rights of the Community Resource Center and one mental health consultation room.
Bellin College will receive $175,000 for need-based scholarships to help first-generation college students and students with proven financial need. Scholarships are expected to be deployed annually within the college’s medical programs.
Associated Bank also pledged $50,000 to the Trout Art Museum and $25,000 to Encompass Early Education and Care. On June 4, the bank donated $66,000 in total value to the Green Bay Veterans Administration by providing 100 refurbished laptops and $18,000 through a coordinated laptop donation with the Green Bay VA and Milwaukee-based electronics recycling nonprofit Digital Bridge.
“These financial commitments will uplift our Northeast Wisconsin region to grow and prosper, and align with our community-focused values that guide us at Associated,” said Associated Bank Regional President Dennis DeLoye. “From increasing access to adolescent mental health services to offering scholarships to students in need and supporting vital nonprofit organizations, we are making a direct impact for the greater good.”
