The civil rights movement of the 60's has certainly influenced the creation of Wainwright's progressive social agenda. That movement has evolved into a coalition of "rights" issues. Homelessness, affordable housing, HIV/AIDS rights, immigration, environmental justice, economic equality and gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgender equality are all children of the civil rights movement. Through our lending practices, philanthropy, and leadership in addressing many of these areas, we have become a catalyst for social change. The timeline above marks many of the milestones in the evolution of the Bank's social agenda. To learn more, read Wainwright Bank: A Social Justice History and visit News, Awards & Press Releases.
