Our corporate partnerships
Banding Together for Good
Our Corporate Partners
Like Bell, these organizations let values guide their actions, help them determine what’s important and influence their interactions in the world. We’re proud to share beliefs with these incredible partners. Together, we’re banding together for a purpose – to make a lasting impact in the communities where we work and live … for good.
In addition to partnering with organizations that share our values, we’ve also teamed up with our Bell Bank Champions – individuals with pay-it-forward hearts who help make our communities a better place. Let us introduce you to them!
USA Fencing
As the Official Bank of USA Fencing, Bell Bank is proud to be linked to the national governing body for the Olympic and Paralympic sport of fencing in the U.S. With our sponsorship with USA Fencing, you’ll spot the Bell name and logo during USA Fencing national events including the North American Cup, Super Junior/Cadet Circuit, FIE Grand Prix and the USA Fencing National Championships.
Fencing is a sport rich in tradition, and it provides physical and mental benefits that last a lifetime. At Bell Bank, we hope to build traditions within our partnership as we support USA Fencing in its quest for sustained excellence in international competition.
USA Boxing
Bell Bank is proud to be the Official Bank of USA Boxing, the national governing body for Olympic-style amateur boxing. Bell and USA Boxing share a commitment to paying it forward to our communities, and we look forward to partnering together to provide financial education, resources and opportunities for USA Boxing’s clubs and members.
Through tough defeats and hard-fought victories, boxing builds the resilience, confidence and character necessary to become champions. Bell Bank is excited to create a championship-level partnership with USA Boxing as we support their mission of growing the sport across the United States.
Minnesota United Football Club
Through our partnership, we proudly sponsor the Bell Bank Man of the Match. In the 80th minute of each home game, Loons fans vote on Twitter for the best performing Minnesota United player of the game. Then, Bell makes a $1,000 Pay It Forward donation to the winning player’s charity of choice. Bell has also recognized and honored the resilient, inclusive and driven people who make our community great, naming L’Etoiles du Nord (Star of the North) – a.k.a. the “stars” of community service – at home matches.
As the Official Bank of Minnesota United, Bell gives Loons fans the opportunity to carry their pride in their wallets. When they open a checking account with Bell, fans can choose the free, personalized Loons debit card. Plus, for every card ordered, Bell donates to support TC SOL, a Twin Cities nonprofit that unites communities through futsal and soccer.
3M Open
Through its 3M Open Foundation, 3M teams up with the PGA Tour for “Golf That Matters” fundraising that benefits local non-profits and programs and impacts lives for the better. (That kind of paying it forward is exactly what we look for in our partnerships with organizations!)
Bell is showcased at the Bell Bank Champions Club, a VIP hospitality experience along the 13th, 14th and 18th holes.
Trollwood Performing Arts School Mainstage Musical
Each summer, as the sun sets under the prairie sky, passion-fueled high school performers take the stage for Trollwood Performing Art School’s Mainstage Musical. Year after year, families attend the show, recalling favorites of years past and looking forward to the performance from the amazingly talented cast, crew and full orchestra in the intimate outdoor venue along the Red River.
“I can’t believe those are high school kids” is a common comment following any performance of the Mainstage Musical, put on by students of Fargo-Moorhead’s Trollwood Performing Arts Center. Bell Bank has proudly supported Trollwood for decades – both as the presenting sponsor and in the form of sweat equity with Bell team members often volunteering to help build sets. Better yet, each year Bell treats employees and their families to a picnic and a show – the night before the cast makes their public debut – and proud parents cheer on their cast-member kids.
We look forward to next year's production!
Bentleyville “Tour of Lights”
Since opening our first full-service bank in Duluth in 2021, Bell Bank has proudly partnered with one of area’s most anticipated holiday attractions to become the Official Bank of Bentleyville – and further plant our roots in the Twin Ports community.
As America’s largest free walk-through lights display, Bentleyville attracts more than 250,000 attendees of all ages during the holiday season each year. Located in Bayfront Festival Park – along the shores of Lake Superior – the display glows with 5 million lights, sparkling across 20 acres.
Partnering with the Salvation Army, Bentleyville – a nonprofit charitable organization – is an official collection site for food and toy donations, empowering families in need throughout 7 communities in northern Minnesota and Wisconsin.
The Get Down Coffee Co.
As the “official” bank, mortgage company and financial services firm for The Get Down Coffee Co., Bell Bank supported Houston’s company at a critical stage of scaling the business, with an initial goal of providing employment opportunities and additional neighborhood amenities.
The multiyear partnership with The Get Down Coffee Co. comes on the heels of the coffee house’s successful opening in November 2021 and fits with the bank’s ongoing commitment to “listen and act” to help build and strengthen the community.
