Patriot National Bank - Patriot in the Community

At Patriot National Bank, dedication towards the community we live and work in goes hand-in-hand with helping to safeguard and grow your hard-earned dollars.

When we opened our first branch in 1994, our founders had a vision of a neighborhood bank, actually created to serve the needs of its neighborhood; residents and business people alike. That founding principle of putting our customer and community first still drives us today.

Patriot team members embrace this effort and reinforce it on a daily basis. You're likely to see your Patriot Banker, working right alongside your neighbors; volunteering at the community center, coaching Little League, serving on the board of a local charity, and walking or swimming for a cause.

We hope you'll join us in supporting the very worthwhile organizations below that have become a part of the Patriot family.

Disabled Americans Veterans Organization, Connecticut
This non-profit group provides programs and assistance free of charge, enabling disabled veterans and their families to restart and reshape their lives as civilians. Patriot has established an on-going relationship with the Veterans, coordinating efforts to help them raise needed funds to provide transportation to and from their Rocky Hill hospital facility. Recently, we proudly presented representatives of this organization a check for $10,000 as a result of both employee and customer donations.
