Coastal Community Bank Announces $375,000 in Multiyear Community Development Grants

Coastal Community Bank (the “Bank”, “Coastal”, or “we”) has awarded three multiyear community development grants totaling $375,000 to nonprofit organizations serving Snohomish and King counties.

Local Initiatives Support Corporation Puget Sound (“LISC”) received a $150,000 grant over three years to support community development efforts in Everett and Snohomish County. The funding will help bring community partners together, strengthen local organizations, coordinate development strategies, and advance projects that expand housing and economic opportunity.

LISC provides community development services by coordinating cross-sector partnerships, convening public agencies and nonprofit organizations, and delivering technical assistance and capacity-building support to housing developers and community-based organizations serving low- and moderate-income communities. These activities facilitate the creation and preservation of affordable housing, strengthen local economic ecosystems, support small businesses and workforce development efforts, and address emerging community needs that impact low- to moderate-income residents.
