Each of our branches is partnering with a local nonprofit to collect essential items and support families in our communities. Together, we’re Lending a Hand.
At Oregon Pacific Bank, community matters. That’s why we launched our “Lending a Hand. Banking with Heart” community collection campaign—to help people and neighborhoods thrive by focusing on what matters most: supporting local needs, building strong relationships, and making a positive impact where we live and work. This annual initiative empowers each of our markets to give back through service, generosity, and meaningful community partnerships.
Launched in 2025, this program provides a unified, flexible framework for community giving across all our markets. Each year, local teams select a theme that aligns with their community’s priorities while maintaining a consistently branded look and feel. All campaigns support our core focus areas: Youth Empowerment, Community Wellness, Housing & Economic Development.
By participating, you’re helping us make a positive impact in our communities—one donation at a time!
Supporting ARK and Coos Bay School District
This year, our Coos Bay branch is collecting personal hygiene items, laundry detergent, and non-perishable foods for ARK, a local organization dedicated to helping those in need. We’re also supporting special programs for the Coos Bay School District, ensuring students and families have access to essential resources. Join us in lending a hand to our neighbors!
Project Hope & Sock Drive
Eugene’s team is supporting Project Hope with a back-to-school campaign (July 15 – August 15), providing supplies to students for a strong start to the school year. Later in the fall, we’ll host a sock drive for adults, helping keep our community warm and cared for. Every donation counts!
