Additionally, the bank presented a total of $30,000 in checks to support three local nonprofit organizations, The Whole Child, Whittier Area First Day Coalition (First Day) and Soroptimist International of Whittier.
“We are very happy to be a part of the Whittier community and look forward to serving the local businesses, entrepreneurs, individuals and families who call Whittier home,” said David Cameron, executive vice president and head of Consumer Banking at City National Bank. “Over the last year, we have truly enjoyed getting to know Whittier and its rich history. We look forward to becoming a trusted member of this vibrant and connected community.”
The branch is in one of the three adapted historic buildings that make up Heritage Court within the Groves – a new community set on a unique historic site that spans 15 acres and is adjacent to more than 500 new homes and nearly 200 apartments, as well as retail shops and eateries.
