Additional opportunities
Volunteers
Ubium Bank associates are out in the community volunteering for a variety of projects.
Ubium Bank’s Connect Volunteer Network™ allows associates paid time off to contribute volunteer hours to youth-focused organizations, schools and community development programs. We believe our strongest partnerships often times begin with volunteerism and grow to include financial support.
If your organization could benefit from our volunteers, let us know.
Online Event Calendar
Ubium Bank believes in promoting local, neighborhood events. Whether you have one event planned or numerous, we’d like to hear about them and help you spread the word. Post your organization’s events on our Discover page.
