Community Involvement

A Community Bank

Being rooted in the Fitchburg community means that we not only help our neighbors with their banking needs, but we serve the community and help it grow.

We have grown our roots in Fitchburg by getting involved in events, projects and sponsorships that include helping the Fitchburg Farmers Market, Fitchburg Concerts in the Park, Fitchburg Boys & Girls Club, Fitchburg’s Bark in the Park and the Fitchburg Police and Fire Departments, just to name a few.

Our staff understands the importance of helping our community and volunteering for causes that affect all of us. That’s why they donate their time and talents to service organizations like Easter Seals, Share Your Holidays, Fitchburg/Verona Rotary, Downtown Madison Rotary, Fitchburg Chamber Economic Development Board, Fitchburg Chamber of Commerce, Development Days, Realtors Association, Madison Area Builders Association, Altrusa International, Inc. of Madison and Fitchburg’s New Economy Technology Team.

To see what our staff is up to, the organizations that we support and the going’s on at Oak Bank, like us on Facebook!

Oak Bank is a proud member of the Fitchburg Chamber of Commerce, the Verona Area Chamber of Commerce, the Latino Chamber of Commerce of Dane County and the Greater Madison Chamber of Commerce.
