Power of Community Week
What is the Wisconsin Bankers Association Power of Community?
During the week of April 15–20, 2024, the seventh annual Wisconsin Bankers Association Power of Community Week campaign will bring together member banks, Associate Member companies, and WBA staff to celebrate our commitment to the communities we serve. During the campaign, we encourage all participants to engage in one or more service activities in this effort to highlight how much Wisconsin’s banking industry supports the communities in our state.
What Does Your Bank Have Planned?
Please fill out this brief form for each branch individually or for your whole bank. The choice is up to you! WBA will then add your activities to the interactive statewide map, displaying the collective efforts and activities taking place across the state.
Need some ideas?
There’s no limit on how you choose to engage with your community during the campaign, but if you’re scratching your head, check out past examples.
Order T-Shirts for Your Team
Create team spirit by ordering Power of Community t-shirts for your company! The shirts feature the campaign logo and hashtag (#BanksPowerWI). A company logo may also be added to the back of the t-shirts.
New for 2024, order your bank’s t-shirts directly from WBA’s partner, Diamond Business Graphics (they have partnered with WBA to fulfill shirt orders for the past 6 years of Power of Community!). In order to have your bank’s order shipped on April 1, your order must be submitted by March 11, 2024.
