RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 3, 2025 – Applications are open for Atlantic Union Bank’s 2026 Future Community Impact Maker Grant program. Sixty grants of $4,000 each will be awarded across the bank’s service area for a total community investment of $240,000. This year, an additional 10 grants were added to the program. The deadline to apply is Jan. 30, 2026.
“Summer internships play a vital role in helping students build essential skills and begin shaping their professional paths,” said Nathalia Artus, Head of Community Impact at Atlantic Union Bank. “Through our grant program, we’re committed to supporting our local communities and expanding access to meaningful work experience for students who may face financial barriers, ensuring those challenges do not limit their potential.”
Atlantic Union Bank will award up to 60 organizations with $4,000 in grant funds to support an intern. The majority of the funding – $3,600 – is intended to go directly to intern wages. Of the remaining $400, $150 is designated for associate management/recruitment costs and $250 will be used for direct professional development costs, such as conference attendance or association membership. Additionally, organizations will receive professional development and resources for internship best practices.
Organizations must be community-based (e.g., nonprofits, government entities, community foundations, etc.), located in an Atlantic Union Bank service area, and commit to hosting an undergraduate- or graduate-level student in an eight-week, direct-permanent hire, paid internship program. The grant recipients will have full discretion over the intern’s job description and hiring decision. Atlantic Union Bank will provide resources and guidance as needed.
Grant applications are due by 11:59 p.m. on January 30, 2026. Awards will be announced by email in mid-February. Interested organizations can find more information and apply at AUBCares.com.
