Outreach & Volunteerism
Catalyzing positive change in our communities.
Volunteer hours
In 2020, Flagstar Bank employees provided 4,127 volunteer hours, and helped 227 different organizations in our markets.
And while COVID-19 safety precautions forced the cancellation of in-person volunteer events, our employees stepped up and transitioned to virtual volunteerism, including providing financial literacy and homebuyer education workshops in remote settings. And when possible, our staff provided in-person volunteerism via food distribution and community cleanups.
Board placement and training
Flagstar employees at all levels serve on nonprofit boards in our communities. In 2020, Flagstar conducted board training to introduce and match employees with nonprofit board opportunities. The training provided an overview of board responsibilities, types of boards, and the process for placement, and surveyed interested employees to create the best opportunity for a successful match.
We are honored and privileged that our employees serve our communities in this way, and we pledge to facilitate, nurture, and increase these connections.
