To support organizations in need, Associated Bank donated over $6,700 in new and gently used Associated Bank office supplies to nearly 20 local nonprofits in Milwaukee.
Associated Bank is committed to giving back to its local communities and is proud to play an active role in helping communities grow and prosper. The excess office supplies were made available as a result of Associated Bank offering flexible work arrangements to its colleagues.
This unique donation will also help reduce supplies end up in a landfill and alleviate costs the nonprofit partners would incur purchasing these items on their own.
Over the past several weeks, 25 Associated Bank employees volunteered more than 50 hours to sort and prepare these materials.

In 2021, Associated Bank renewed its formal Community Commitment Plan (CCP), which focuses on helping communities grow and prosper through the provision of sound financial services, volunteerism and community investment. With a focus on supporting low-to-moderate income communities and consumers and small businesses across Wisconsin, Illinois and Minnesota, the new CCP represents a 40% increase in Associated’s lending and investments efforts over the 2018-20 Plan.
