Seeds of Service

Seeds of Service is a teammate volunteer program that encourages support of community service projects at the bank-wide, branch and department level to benefit schools and other nonprofit organizations in neighborhoods on each island.

Building Stronger Communities Together

In 2005, American Savings Bank launched its Seeds of Service program to encourage teammates to bring real impact to our community by sharing their time and talent with local schools and nonprofit organizations.

Collectively, our ASB teammates volunteer thousands of hours each year uplifting residents – from keiki to kupuna – through financial education, increasing supply and access to affordable housing, infusing positive activities into Aala Park, and supporting the Chinatown, Kalihi-Palama neighborhoods. Our team members also serve on dozens of nonprofit boards throughout the state and impact positive change by sharing our skills and leadership.

We encourage our teammates to plant their seeds of service all year long by supporting the causes and organizations they are passionate about. This is one way ASB continues to invest in our local communities through action.
