Contributing to Baltic society
We aim to support local communities through a range of activities that promote financial literacy, raise awareness of issues related to savings, investments, and responsible borrowing, and support local entrepreneurship. We pursue this objective through a variety of educational and awareness-raising activities, by contributing to education, and by implementing or supporting various initiatives, including media projects.
A few years ago, Luminor Latvia started cooperation with the Social Entrepreneurship Association of Latvia by implementing the project Pitch Contest and inviting social entrepreneurs to submit their ideas with the chance to receive a grant for their implementation. We are continuing this cooperation by launching for the first time the social entrepreneurs training programme Change Academy and by continuing to organise the Pitch Contest for social entrepreneurs.
Luminor Bank promotes financial literacy by regularly informing the public through the media and lectures for students and schoolchildren. In 2022, Luminor joined the Ready for Life project to teach schoolchildren of all ages about financial literacy, fraud, and other important topics in education and everyday life.
Supporting the Dod Pieci! (High Five!) charity project has also become an annual tradition, inviting donations at the end of the year for various issues important and relevant to society.
In 2023, we were also awarded the Family Friendly Workplace status by the Society Integration Foundation, confirming our commitment to do more not only for society, but also for the well-being and emotional health of our employees.
