BOSTON, Jan. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Santander US ("Santander") announced a total commitment of more than $14.8 million in charitable giving in 2019 across the United States, including $11.5 million from Santander Bank, N.A., $800,000 through Santander's Universities program, $2.19 million through the Santander Consumer USA Inc. Foundation, and more than $385,000 from Banco Santander Puerto Rico.
"Santander continues to invest in the communities we serve through our charitable giving," said Tim Wennes, Santander US Chief Executive Officer. "Our charitable giving approach is focused on helping people and businesses prosper, and we recognize the value that financial support provides to the non-profit organizations working to make a difference in the communities we serve."
Santander's charitable giving across the United States focuses on non-profit organizations that drive prosperity in three key areas: financial empowerment, small business and entrepreneurship, and affordable housing and healthy communities. "Santander has identified these areas as key needs of the communities where we live and work," said Seth Goodall, Santander's Executive Director of Corporate Social Responsibility. "The organizations we support through grants are able to provide services, programming and resources in these areas to create change in the lives of individuals and families in our communities, which ultimately makes our communities stronger."
Santander Bank awarded $11.5 million to 336 organizations across two grant cycles in its northeast footprint. The second cycle concluded in October and awarded $6.2 million to 179 organizations supporting low- to moderate-income communities:
Santander Universities, a program focused on supporting higher education, conducted a pilot program in 2019 that included $800,000 in gifts to 17 universities, colleges and community colleges across the United States to fund scholarships and programming for first-generation, entrepreneurial students. The grants will provide workshops, internships, course tuition, mentoring and project funding for more than 300 eligible students.
Santander Consumer, headquartered in Dallas, contributed to Santander's overall charitable giving through the Santander Consumer USA Inc. Foundation ("the Foundation"), awarding a total of $2.19 million to 24 organizations throughout 2019 within Santander Consumer's key employment markets of Dallas, TX, Phoenix/Mesa, AZ, and Denver, CO. The Foundation's awards culminated with a third grant cycle in December, granting $900,000 to nine non-profit organizations.
