Our Mission - Pacific Continental Bank

The Right Bank ® for Nonprofits
Nonprofit organizations operate with the principle goal
of carrying out their missions every day. To achieve this
goal, organization leaders must build strong relationships
and develop innovative programs to ensure the strength
and success of the clients and communities they serve.
When it comes to working with nonprofits, Pacific
Continental Bank’s philosophy is no different.
For more than 40 years, Pacific Continental Bank has
served the Pacific Northwest with a passion for helping
nonprofit organizations thrive. Just as you advocate
for your clients, we advocate for you. We act as a
collaborative business partner, allowing you to focus on
what you do best — fulfill your organization’s mission.
We offer flexible services to fit the specific needs
of nonprofit groups of all sizes. From cash flow
management training to financing, sweep accounts
for operating funds and more, we understand your
work and financial needs. As your organization grows
and changes, we adjust our banking services to better
meet your needs. And, we share our resources to
help you lead your organization more efficiently
and effectively.
From small, emerging organizations to large, seasoned
agencies, we have the capacity and knowledge to
service your needs. Examples of the types of nonprofit
organizations we work with include:
• Faith-based organizations
• Health and human services
• Social and civic groups
• Educational organizations
• Community and arts organizations
Within our own organization, we walk the talk.
We offer support in terms of giving and volunteerism,
underscoring our strong commitment to building up
communities and community partners.
Our Bankers Speak Nonprofit
At Pacific Continental, our bankers
truly speak the language of nonprofit
organizations. Several of our banking
experts have held positions in the
nonprofit sector, from serving as
professional staff to members of
boards of directors. This industry
expertise is invaluable as we
assist nonprofit organizations in
navigating the world of banking.
As an example of our dedication
to community organizations,
Pacific Continental offers seminars
and workshops focused on helping
nonprofit organizations better
position themselves for financial
success. We also host informational
meetings to guide nonprofit groups
in evaluating their banking needs.
Additionally, Pacific Continental
has developed a white paper series
dedicated to the issues facing
nonprofits today.
