Ways We Serve

Commitment To Our Community

Since our start in 2004, Pacific West Bank has been investing in making positive impacts in our community. As a Community Bank in Vancouver, Washington, and the greater Portland area, we believe that as we grow, our community investments grow. We do this because local matters to us.

Our commitment to community is omnipresent in our banking philosophy, hands-on banking with a local feel. Below are some of the impact highlights we’ve had the pleasure of contributing to our community.
