Empower Communities with Philanthropic Banking | BankNewport Welcome to the new BankNewport. com! FDIC-Insured—Backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government BankNewport Charitable Giving Having been steeped in the community for over two centuries, our commitment goes beyond banking.
Being your community bank means giving back. It means understanding what community needs are and identifying ways we can help. BankNewport demonstrates an ongoing commitment to having a positive impact in the communities we serve.
Over the past ten years, we've awarded over $12 million to a wide range of nonprofits to help strengthen and enrich lives. Pathways to Community Support We believe it's imperative that our charitable funds be designated to support those most in need. Grants and Contributions are both sources of funding, but they serve different purposes and have distinct requirements and expectations.
The BankNewport Charitable Foundation considers grant requests of $5,000 and over. Our Foundation was established in 2023 as an extension of BankNewport’s commitment to the Rhode Island communities the bank and its employees have served since 1819. Through our Foundation we support the work of 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations focused on arts and culture, basic human needs, education success and healthy lives, thriving communities.
Foundation grants will be considered for projects and programs, including those with a special focus on human services and community development initiatives that serve low to moderate income individuals and communities. Contributions are donations and support extended to nonprofit organizations.
Unlike grants, contributions may be smaller in scale and are typically intended to assist with specific activities, such as annual fundraisers, community concerts and festivals, youth programming, and more. BankNewport considers requests of contributions up to $5,000.
