Helping our communities is at the heart of what we do. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that we are once again supporting United Way of San Antonio and Bexar County, United Way for Greater Austin, United Way of Comal County, United Way of Metropolitan Dallas and United Way of Greater Houston by hosting an employee-giving campaign this fall. Through our 2023 United Way Campaign, Broadway Bankers can make monetary donations to their local United Way, directly benefitting nonprofit organizations that are supporting Texas families, education and public health.
Founders Col. Charles E. Cheever Sr. and Elizabeth “Betty” Cheever envisioned an institution that not only served Texas families but also actively contributed to the betterment of our communities. Today, we are honored to continue their legacy by supporting local organizations through our Care Corps employee volunteer program, nonprofit board service, financial literacy education, scholarships and donations.
Our campaign is spearheaded by a passionate committee of bankers representing various areas of our organization that take the lead in crafting internal communications, igniting enthusiasm among teams and leaders, orchestrating engaging campaign activities and diligently monitoring the contributions.
When asked why they personally give to United Way, some of our committee members had this to say:
"I give to United Way because the need is so great in our community. You never know when you may be the one who needs a helping hand, and being a supporter of United Way has allowed me to see the impact they make. United Way continues to make our community stronger. The resilience and true spirit of those whose lives have changed, inspire me."
Karen Mawyer
SREVP, Head of Corporate Support and Residential Lending
"I give to the United Way because I see firsthand the difference it makes in the lives of people in our community. Supporting the United Way aligns with my commitment to fostering financial stability, education, and health in the communities we serve. It’s a way to ensure that resources are directed where they’re needed most, helping to uplift individuals and families and ultimately creating a stronger, more resilient community."
John Matey
SREVP, Chief Risk Officer and Chief Credit Officer
Broadway Bank’s CEO David Bohne served as the 2021 United Way Campaign Chair, championing the efforts of the campaign that year by uniting 86 companies, organizations and United Way Impact and Community Partners. “San Antonio is a leader in United Way giving because there is a strong sense of community and generosity here,” Bohne said. “We are able to combine donor resources to lift up the community and enhance the collective capacity of people to care for one another and overcome their circumstances,” he added.
