Community Corner

Supporting our local communities is deeply ingrained in our values.

Throughout the years, you may have seen us at a variety of local community events—from passing out sunglasses and light-up bracelets at Morgan Hill’s Friday Night Music Series to pouring beer & wine at local festivals like Campbell’s Boogie on the Avenue and the Morgan Hill Mushroom Mardi Gras. Of course, our community efforts would not be complete without our parade participation in Morgan Hill’s 4th of July Freedom Fest and their Kiwanis Club Holiday Lights Parade.

We live here, work here, and volunteer here too. Help us continue to make a difference in the community by making a donation to one of our local charities:

Supporting Our Schools & Financial Education
CommonWealth demonstrates its commitment to local schools through various initiatives. We deeply value the dedication of our local schools and their efforts to equip students with the necessary tools and resources to achieve their goals and prepare for the future. We are proud to be a trusted partner in supporting and participating in these local schools.

Educational scholarships have long been a cornerstone of CommonWealth’s annual giving programs. In recent years, we have intensified our efforts to support high school seniors in achieving their educational aspirations. Our scholarship program recognizes students who volunteer and positively impact their local communities. This year, we awarded 10 scholarships to outstanding high school seniors who have made a significant difference while pursuing their educational goals.

We are dedicated to the financial well-being of our members and communities, To support this mission, we continue to offer our comprehensive financial education programs, WealthMatters and CommonCents. WealthMatters, our program for adult financial education, offers an interactive learning experience that provides financial tools and tips to help put our members on the path to financial success. CommonCents, our program for youth financial education, makes learning about money fun and provides simple financial tools and games for young people to learn about managing their money.
