Community Relations
We believe TCF has a special obligation
to its communities. This commitment to
community is demonstrated by supporting
a variety of nonprofit organizations
through volunteer time, counsel, board
representation and grant making, as well
as supporting key projects through finan-
cial contributions.
During 2005, TCF contributed $3 million
to charitable organizations in human
services, education, community develop-
ment, and the arts. In addition, numerous
TCF employees generously gave their time
by volunteering and/or providing leader-
ship to local nonprofit organizations.
TCF continues to make a difference for
people in need, and over the past ten
years, has contributed more than $23 mil-
lion in grants to deserving organizations.
There are a variety of ways local nonprofit
organizations receive financial support
from the TCF Foundation, TCF Bank®and
its employees:
•Branch Funds – Contributions or grants
are awarded to organizations located
near TCF branches.
•Employee Matching Gifts – Donations
contributed by employees to nonprofit
organizations of their choice are matched
dollar-for-dollar by TCF.
•Employee’s Fund – Funds contributed
by employees through payroll deduction;
contributions are matched 100 percent
by the TCF Foundation.
•TCF Foundation and Corporate Giving –
Larger grants and multi-year commitments
awarded to local and some national
organizations.
“TCF continues to make a difference for people in need, and
over the past ten years, has contributed more than $23 million
in grants to deserving organizations.”
TCF Bank is pleased to recognize the gen-
erosity of its employees who supported
the victims of the Indian Ocean Tsunami
and Hurricane Katrina. TCF employees
and TCF customers, along with the TCF
Foundation, donated over $40,000 for
the Tsunami Relief effort, and then again
generously donated over $110,000 to assist
in the Hurricane Katrina relief effort.
Each year, TCF employees create and
organize an internal March of Dimes®
campaign, raising money to prevent birth
defects and infant mortality. In 2005, TCF
employees raised over $400,000,
supporting the mission of the March of
Dimes.
TCF would like to take this opportunity
to give a special thank you to all our
employees who are serving, or who have
recently served, in the armed forces.
