Old National Bank Community Growth Plan Expanded to $9.5 Billion Supporting Historically Underserved in Communities

In February 2022, Old National announced a five-year, $8.3 billion Community Growth Plan (CGP) focused on expanding our longstanding commitment to support historically underserved and economically disadvantaged individuals, families and communities. The plan was developed in collaboration with the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC) and its members.

In early 2024, Old National expanded the plan to include the state of Tennessee, bringing the total five-year commitment to $9.5 billion.
