Corporate Philanthropy:
The Flagstar Foundation
At Flagstar Bank, we believe in giving back to the communities in which we serve. Learn more about our corporate philanthropy efforts through the Flagstar Foundation.
The Foundation’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic
Flagstar Bank has a 30-year tradition of supporting local charitable causes. In light of the coronavirus pandemic, the Flagstar Foundation is adjusting its philanthropic priorities to provide critical funding to help those affected by the crisis.
Instead of our twice-yearly request for grant applications, the Flagstar Foundation is funding past grant recipients that provide food, shelter, medical care, and other core services to vulnerable populations.
As a result of this shift in priorities, we are not accepting applications at this time. We look forward to resuming focus on the Foundation’s normal charitable giving soon.
Our corporate philanthropy priorities:
We believe in the importance of corporate philanthropy and giving back to the communities around us. Flagstar looks to support charitable causes and provide grants to nonprofit organizations that align with our corporate philanthropy priorities within our key market areas:
- Michigan
- Northern Indiana (primarily South Bend and Fort Wayne)
- Northern Wisconsin (Gillett, Marinette, Mountain, and Oconto Falls)
- California (High Desert of San Bernardino County)
The Foundation awards grants to nonprofit organizations that align with the bank’s philanthropic priorities and have measurable outcomes. Our three areas of focus are workforce readiness, arts and culture, and financial capability.
The Foundation board places special emphasis to direct grant funding toward nonprofits that serve racial and ethnic groups, the LGBTQ community, people with disabilities, women, and veterans to ensure that we are supporting and promoting the bank’s commitment to diversity and inclusion.
