Community Support
At the heart of QNB Bank is Community.
We are proud of our 148-year legacy of working to make today and tomorrow better for the communities in which we serve, work, and live. Community support and involvement is something we love to do and something we do well because of the strong relationships we have with our local neighbors, schools, municipalities, businesses, and non-profit organizations. We find giving is one of the best ways for us to invest and strengthen the community upon which our shared success depends.
QNB Bank is committed to continually enhancing our community’s economic vitality and social welfare through corporate and community sponsorship, charitable contributions, and donations.

Time Well Spent – Volunteer Hours & Employee Giving
Community Events
Not only are funds needed to support our communities, QNB employees also give their time and talents by volunteering at countless community organizations and events. Whether we are manning a booth at a local street fair, walking in a parade, volunteering at Chamber or charity event, coaching a team, or hosting an event that benefits our neighbors, you can count on QNB employees to be there lending a hand to our communities.
Education & Awareness
Our Employees help run classes and workshops to educate people on financial stability as well as financial security, first-time home buying, and advice when starting a business. We also provide financial education tools such as Banzai Financial Education and KOFE Financial Education. We believe it is our responsibility to provide our community and neighbors with resources to help them achieve their financial goals.
Employee Financial Giving
Casual for a Cause Program
Through QNB’s Casual for a Cause program, employees are given the opportunity to donate money to wear jeans at work. The money collected goes toward contributions to charities selected by an employee committee and is also matched by QNB at $.25 per employee dollar.
United Way Campaign
In late 2024, QNB Bank held its annual campaign to raise funds for United Way. Led by Lisa Renae, Executive Assistant of QNB Bank, this year’s campaign was very successful, tallying up $19,097 from employees and an additional 25% match, $4,774, from the Bank for a total contribution of $23,871. That is a 15% increase over the prior year!
