About Sunrise Community Banks
Sunrise Community Banks is in the business of developing strong communities that provide homes and jobs to our residents. To be the leader in improving our urban community, we consistently invest in meaningful projects within our inner-city neighborhoods. These historic communities are essential to the success of our larger communities.
We were introduced to B Corp by someone we trust. We agreed that being certified and a part of this community gives us an opportunity to exercise our leadership not only in the Twin Cities but across the country. We're excited about the possibilities for us and to have a bigger impact on policy.
At Sunrise, we bank on people - just like you - by investing in your goals. We deliver sound financial strategies for success and work closely with state and federal assistance programs to finance your dreams. Each of our banks has success stories to share. We take pride in your success. We know that we cannot be successful unless our community is successful.
The Change We Seek™
Social responsibility is our duty.
• Each of the Sunrise banks offer a Socially Responsible Deposit Fund that allows you to actively support local community development. You get the satisfaction of knowing your dollars are being put to work in Saint Paul and Minneapolis neighborhoods. Through the administration of these Funds, Sunrise supports affordable housing initiatives, small business development, and not-for-profits.
