The strength of Woodforest is demonstrated by its generous commitment to supporting the communities it serves.

Woodforest National Bank has recently provided a $2 million contribution to The Woodforest Charitable Foundation.

The Woodforest Charitable Foundation was created by Woodforest National Bank in 2005, in celebration of the bank’s 25th anniversary, as a direct result of its desire to support and invest in the communities in which it serves.  The Foundation has created a legacy of commitment to those in need and enriching their lives and communities by providing funding to qualifying 501(c)(3) charities. 

“We are very pleased to announce our contribution to The Woodforest Charitable Foundation,” said Robert E. Marling, Jr., Chief Executive Officer of Woodforest National Bank.  “Last year was a record year for Woodforest National Bank in terms of strength and profitability.  Now, more than ever, non-profits are facing greater challenges with their efforts to help others who are in need, and we are delighted to channel our support to the Foundation and the many deserving charities that it serves.”.

Local examples of such charities that have benefited from The Woodforest Charitable Foundation include the Montgomery County Women’s Shelter, Interfaith of The Woodlands, Habitat for Humanity, New Community Alliance, The Friendship Center, Montgomery County Food Bank, The Community Clinic, and the Montgomery County YMCA.

Celebrating 29 years of service and ranked among the top earning banks in the United States, Woodforest currently has assets of approximately $3.2 billion and services more than 650,000 customers.

Last year, Woodforest National Bank underscored its commitment to the community by funding approximately $800 million in new loan requests and increased employment by more than 1,100.
