Marquette Bank supports education in our neighborhoods by helping area schools with financial education and supply donations as well as through our annual Marquette Bank Education Foundation Scholarship Program.

Financial Education
Employees volunteer their time to teach the value of a dollar to school students; explain current financial scams and how to avoid identity theft to seniors; and help first-time homebuyers know what to expect during the home buying process.
 
     Adopt-A-Classroom Program
Each year, we award 22 local classrooms with a $200 gift card to use as they wish for the purchase of classroom supplies and educational materials. 
Back To School Drive
This yearly event allows employees and customers to give back to local schools by donating school supplies. The supplies are organized and distributed to students in need. 
    Backpack employee volunteer packing event
Since 1968, Marquette Bank has awarded over $3.6 million in higher-education scholarships to over 1,800 high school students form Chicagoland neighborhoods. Students are selected based on financial need, scholastic achievement and a record of community service.
