At Summit State Bank, we take serving our community very seriously and are committed to making a difference, just as you are. As a local community bank, our employees care deeply about the work you do, and we will work tirelessly to help you achieve your goals.
Our Nonprofit Partner Program is designed for 501(c) tax-exempt organizations to enhance your fundraising efforts and to maximize your organization’s money.
There are several ways in which to engage our team and leverage the program attributes:
We will pay your nonprofit based on the type of account you select.
Here's how it works.
Non-interest bearing operating accounts
You will earn .95% on your non-interest bearing operating accounts.* Analyzed business accounts are included. For example, a $100,000 average Summit account balance would receive a $950 annual contribution.
Interest-bearing accounts
You will earn .25% on your interest-bearing Summit savings, money market and demand deposit accounts. For example, a $100,000 average Summit account balance would receive a $250 annual contribution.
Insured Cash Sweep (ICS)
For nonprofits who are interested or required to maintain insured funds, we offer an ICS account and pay .65% if your account is a non-interest bearing operating account or .15% for an interest-bearing operating account.
Together, we can help make Sonoma County a better place to live for all members of our community.
If your business or nonprofit banks with us, you are eligible to take part in our Featured Partner Program. Reach out to your local Summit State Bank branch for more information.

* Summit State Bank reserves the right to determine that an operating account’s activity is reflective of true operational use and qualified based upon the aforementioned annual contribution parameters. An operating account is typically used to record every day administrative and general income/expenses including payroll, employee benefits and pension contributions, travel and transportation, amortization and depreciation, rent, repairs, taxes; income/expenses from programs and services, e.g. grants, informational services/training programs for community; fundraising event income/expenses.
In order to receive the annual contribution, the benefiting account must be in an open status at the time of the payout.
