50 Years of Philanthropy

Celebrating our 50th anniversary with employee-directed gifts to community

Alpine Bank hit the 50-year mark in 2023! We’re celebrating our commitment to community investment and the vital role our customers and community partners have played in the success of our organization over five decades. 

In a broad gesture of thanks, Alpine Bank is awarding 355 Colorado nonprofits and community organizations a gift of $500 or more. Each of Alpine Bank’s 853 employees directed a one-time charitable gift of $500 to support a Colorado nonprofit of their choice. We call it 50 Years of Philanthropy, and it comes as a part of our golden anniversary celebration. 

In total, $426,500 was donated to 355 selected organizations in celebration of the bank’s continued commitment to Colorado. The gifts were awarded on Colorado Day, our state’s 147th birthday. 

Colorado Governor Jared Polis underscored the company’s community commitment with an official proclamation naming August 1, 2023 as “Alpine Bank Day,” noting that “since its inception in 1973, Alpine Bank has exemplified a philanthropic spirit by providing non-profit organizations with over $55 million in grants, scholarships, sponsorships and other donations.”

The organizations will receive a letter explaining the surprise donation, along with the total amount awarded. Some organizations received gifts larger than $500 after being selected by more than one employee.
