About The Foundation

Banco Popular Foundation was established in 2004 with the mission of strengthening the social and economic well-being of the communities we serve. Since its inception, the Foundation has invested a total of $1,723,551 and over 90 non-profit organizations throughout our regions. Our grant dollars are maximized with the time and effort dedicated by employee liaisons who contribute in different ways to each of the organizations we support.
