Racial Justice

Our voice

• We use our voice to support the Black Lives Matter movement, racial justice, and equity for all 
• We are the first U.S. bank to endorse HR40 - a bill establishing a Commission to explore reparations for African Americans 

Our Practices

• Formed a Racial Justice Task Force to address internal bias and racism through training, employee engagement, and pathways to leadership 
• Provide, promote, and expand opportunities for minority employees by sharing information, facilitating career development, promoting awareness, and influencing growth in a supportive and safe environment through our Minority Organization for Leadership and Development Employee Resource Group (MOLD ERG) 
• We have included an anti-racism statement in the introduction of our employee handbook that identifies how the Bank also endeavors every day to be an anti-racism organization  

Our money

• We do not lend money to companies and organizations that do not support the just, fair, and equitable treatment of the BIPOC community 
• Through the Amalgamated Foundation Hate is Not Charitable campaign, $35M of the grants went to organizations that are focused on the Black Community and Communities of Color 
• Amalgamated Foundation explicitly supports nonprofits led by People of Color and those fighting for racial justice as explicit criteria for grantmaking
