The Mission of the Ponce De Leon Foundation is to strengthen the communities served by Ponce Bank by supporting charitable causes and organizations located within any county in which the Bank has a branch office. The Foundation awards grants to local not-for-profit organizations and community groups that provide programs focused on affordable housing, education, healthcare, social services, economic development and cultural diversity including housing assistance, scholarships, local education programs, local not-for-profit medical facilities, and other similar types of organizations or civic-minded projects.
Our culture is our community. We celebrate diversity and take pride in where we’ve come from and where we’re headed.
Let’s build a network of support for the local businesses that are engines of resiliency for our communities.
Where you live shouldn’t limit access to education. Let’s make the sky the limit for anyone who wants to learn.
By ensuring equal access to healthcare, we can empower individuals with the education and support they need.
When housing is accessible, everyone benefits from stronger, more resilient neighborhoods.
Let’s provide support, dignity and community to our seniors to whom we owe so much and who often ask for little more than a warm smile and a helping hand.
Every community is unique. Let’s support the many needs arising from communities that are creatively woven from the dense fabric of our diverse cultures.
They’re our future and we need to give them hope. Let’s provide our next generation with tools not just to survive but to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
