At Dundee Bank, we are proud to focus on our sustainability goals through events, support, and education.
Events
Dundee Bank has partnered with Hillside Solutions to become a zero-waste bank. We have zero-waste stations at our locations and continually discuss ways to eliminate waste for our bank and our customers.
Here are a few examples –
- We have hosted events such as shred days, pumpkin drop-offs, and battery recycling, which have received an overwhelming response from the community.
- At the Dundee branch, we have added a “green space” in the east alleyway which includes a bench made from 100% recycled materials and a little free library. (Due to COVID, we have temporarily turned this into a little free pantry.)
- We have a coffee maker with 100% compostable coffee pods and cups. You can skip your brew at home and stop by the bank for a free cappuccino or latte!
- We have a Bevi water system that has allowed us to save more than 3,600 water bottles from ending up in landfills.
Dundee Bank continually evaluates things like the vendors we work with and the paper we print on, which started the shift to post-consumer paper and, technologies that minimize paper dependency for our employees and customers.
Support
Dundee Bank is excited to partner with Julie Sommer from UNMC. Julie is a part of eXXpedition (pronounced ex-expedition) Round the World, an all female-sailing mission to explore the impact of plastic and toxic pollution in out oceans.
Education
Our newsletter and blogs contain information on things like how to reduce waste or the importance of ride sharing. We feature our customers and ways that are making a difference in our communities. We also provide seasonal content to help educate readers on ways to prep their garden in the spring and how to conserve energy in the winter.
This is only the beginning. We have so much more in store, –including solar panels that will help us achieve a Powered Locally certification through Bluestem Energy Solutions.
