Santander US has released highlights from its 2023–2025 Community Plan, marking the latest chapter in its ongoing commitment to expanding economic opportunity and strengthening the communities it serves.
Developed in partnership with the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC) and shaped by a Community Advisory Board of nonprofit and community leaders, the plan was designed to address evolving community needs through a collaborative, community-driven approach.
“Our Community Plan reflects a clear focus on delivering meaningful, measurable impact. We’ve continued to invest in areas that strengthen local economies while building on long-standing partnerships that help us reach communities more effectively.”
Leah Daly
Head of Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainability at Santander US
Over the three-year period, Santander advanced a broad range of efforts spanning small business support, community development, financial inclusion, and sustainable finance, bringing together its capabilities to support long-term stability and growth for individuals, families and businesses. The Community Plan aligns Santander’s work across lending, investing, philanthropy and employee engagement to support communities at scale. The results of this work, and the programs and partnerships behind it, are highlighted below.
“Sharing these stories is an important part of how we demonstrate accountability and transparency in our community investments. This work reflects a deep commitment to the communities we serve and the partnerships that make it possible.”
Eva Radtke
Santander US Chief Communications Officer
As Santander prepares for its next phase of community investment, the company remains disciplined in its approach to community development in 2026 and will continue to deploy capital, work alongside partners, and expand opportunity.
