Comerica Bank donates $50,000 to Girls Inc.

Girls Inc. of Orange County will try to expand its reach and programs after Comerica Bank signed on as the organization’s first Corporate Presenting Dream Partner and gifted the organization $50,000.

The donation was given at the bank’s second Women’s Business Symposium last week when the bank made the commitment to partner with Girls Inc.

Comerica Bank’s Western Market and Group Manager Senior Vice President Melissa Pollard will be appointed to the Girls In. Orange County Board of Trustees in June.

Girls Inc. will use the funds to implement education and enrichment programs this year.

Comerica Bank will be the Presenting Dream Sponsor at the Strong, Smart and Bold celebration, an annual event for Girls Incorporated that will be Oct. 24 at the Island Hotel in Newport Beach.
