Tri Counties Bank was recently named as a “Top Partner” by the California Black Chamber of Commerce, the largest African American non-profit business organization representing hundreds of small and emerging businesses, affiliates and chambers of commerce throughout the state.

Tri Counties Bank, a leading community bank in California, is being honored with this award due to its commitment to helping aspiring home buyers in the Greater Sacramento area achieve their dreams of homeownership. Most recently, Tri Counties Bank partnered with the California Black Chamber of Commerce to provide several home buyer seminars at the Highlands Community Charter School in Sacramento. These seminars teach home buyers how to best qualify for a home and dispel common myths about the home lending process including credit score, down payment requirements, and job history.

“We are honored to receive this designation from the California Black Chamber,” said Dyke Mundy, Vice President and Home Mortgage Sales Manager at Tri Counties Bank. “We share the Chamber’s commitment in providing financial literacy to our communities, especially around homeownership.”

Tri Counties Bank offers multiple down payment assistance programs, including the Homeownership Access Program, which aims to increase homeownership in Black and Hispanic communities. Additionally, in 2022, Tri Counties Bank announced a $200,000 donation, in conjunction with the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (FHLBank San Francisco), to promote homeownership as part of the FHLBank San Francisco’s Empowering Black Homeownership matching grant program.
