Join Us in Honoring:
A longtime supporter of KidWorks, U.S. Bank has exemplified leadership at every level.
“Organizations like KidWorks are essential to helping first-generation college students achieve their dreams of college and career success. Supporting KidWorks students is an investment in the future leaders of Orange County, and we are eager to continue partnering with KidWorks and the students they serve in the coming years.”— Adrian Montero, senior vice president of Commercial Real Estate in Orange County.
U.S. Bank’s support has been multifaceted. From 15 years of Board Leadership to decorating the center for the holidays, dressing up and passing out Halloween candy to mentoring students, they have consistently championed our mission and vision. Their employees have lent their professional experiences to KidWorks students through mock interviews and job site visits. They have also served taquitos to KidWorks families during our “Noche de Las Estrellas” graduation ceremony. Their readiness to serve excellently, no matter the occasion, is a testament to their unwavering support.
Over the last 15 years, U.S. Bank and the U.S. Bank Foundation have generously supported KidWorks with over $600,000 in contributions. The recent multi-year gift of $300,000 from the U.S. Bank Foundation has significantly funded KidWorks’ greatest needs.
“We cannot thank U.S. Bank enough for their long-standing support. The effects of U.S. Bank’s longstanding commitment to inspire purpose in youth, fuel their growth, and catalyze their impact in the community and the world will be seen for years to come.” – David Benavides, KidWorks Executive Director/CEO
