Helping fuel prosperity across The Golden State.
At California Bank & Trust, our goal is to help each community where we live and work—and every community where we do business—thrive and prosper. Doing so means providing innovative programs and critical resources to businesses and organizations in our communities. Just two examples are our community development grant programs and an array of resources for women- and minority-owned businesses.
We invite you to learn more about how CB&T can help your community profit and prosper in the years ahead.
We award select charitable gifts to organizations that foster the growth and enrichment of our communities through the Community Development Grant Program.
