Putting the "Community" into "Community Bank"

At CNB Bank we're passionate about our communities -- the places we live, work and love. ​We're proud to be community-focused and strongly believe in getting involved in a multitude of ways. Whether it's providing financial education to high school students, volunteering at community events, or coaching little league baseball, you'll find us totally involved and dedicated to making our communities amazing places to live.

One initiative we're proud to support is the Emily Whitehead Foundation.
 
Emily is the first child in the world to have her immune cells activated to fight cancer. This innovative approach to treating cancer is called CAR T-cell therapy. Today, Emily is more than nine years cancer-free!

The Foundation's mission is to Activate The Cure® for childhood cancer by raising awareness and funding for innovative childhood cancer treatments that are less toxic and more targeted, such as immunotherapy, and to support families fighting childhood cancer.

Financial Literacy Efforts

The Corporation expanded its efforts surrounding its financial literacy outreach in 2022, conducting five Financial Reality Fairs in various regions throughout the footprint we serve. The fairs teach real-life budgeting skills to high school students, many of whom are in low-to-moderate income households. Our employees and community volunteers not only shared their real-life knowledge of budgeting, but also provided additional financial education after the events.
Financial Reality Fair
  • Conducted five Financial Reality Fairs
  • Eighty employees donated over 875 hours of volunteer time
  • Leveraged partnerships with thirty community organizations
  • Employees participated in 120 other financial literacy events ranging from basic community banking sessions to school presentations
  • A total of 1,219 volunteer hours can be attributed to the financial literacy program

Leadership Within Our Communities


The Corporation serves as a cornerstone institution of both financial support and community service in the markets in which we serve. We are committed to strengthening these communities through the active volunteering of our employees.

With the help of our employees, clients, community and vendors, CNB Bank is thrilled to have raised over $42,000 at our 12th annual Charity Golf Tournament, benefiting the American Cancer Society and Clearfield Area United Way. Since we first kicked off this annual event, we have raised nearly $288,000 for local charities. It is a wonderful opportunity to give back to our community, and we look forward to seeing everyone again next year!
