This summer marked Mission Valley Bank's 20th anniversary serving the financial needs of the San Fernando and Santa Clarita Valleys with the best of Community Business Banking. The bank's local roots run deep, motivated by the desire to be an integral part of the areas we serve. A strong community thrives on personal relationships and Mission Valley Bank supports - and is honored to be supported by - the business community.
Over the years, our team of Trusted Advisors have partnered with thousands of local area business owners, providing unique financial solutions that help both clients and communities thrive. As a full-service, independent, commercial bank that is locally owned, community minded and relationship driven, we're proud to have earned our reputation as Trusted Advisors.
To commemorate this milestone of 20 years in the community, Mission Valley Bank donated $20,000 to local area nonprofit organizations to assist in furthering their missions. As an organization, we feel strongly that there is no better way to celebrate and express our gratitude than by giving back to the communities that have supported our growth and success.
Throughout the pandemic, area nonprofits worked tirelessly to support those in need, doing more with less than ever before. On behalf of the entire Mission Valley Bank team, we are grateful to have the opportunity to offer these small gifts. As we celebrate, we encourage everyone who is able to please give what you can to your charity of choice.
Tamara Gurney is president and CEO of Mission Valley Bank.
