Primis Bank Recognized for Protecting Older Americans

Primis Bank has received an honorable mention in the American Bankers Association Foundation’s 2026 Community Commitment Awards for Wrapping Our Seniors Up with Love, a community program focused on helping older adults recognize and avoid financial abuse and common scams.Led by Diane Beirne, director of corporate social responsibility, in conjunction with Alison Martin, assistant commonwealth’s attorney for Henrico County, the program brings together local law enforcement and community organizations to provide practical fraud education for seniors and the people who care for them. Through community conversations and easy-to-understand guidance, participants learn how to spot warning signs, respond to suspicious activity and protect their personal and financial information. It’s one more way Primis is helping people feel more informed, more confident and better prepared to protect what matters.We’re proud of Diane and every community partner who has helped wrap our seniors up with the knowledge and support they deserve.View the 2026 ABA Foundation Community Commitment Award receipients.

Why This Top Workplaces Recognition Matters

Earlier this week, Primis announced that we earned eight 2026 Top Workplaces Culture Excellence awards through a nationally recognized workplace excellence program based entirely on teammate feedback. You can read the full announcement here.While we’re incredibly proud of the recognition itself, I’ve spent even more time reflecting on why it matters.At Primis, culture has never been a side initiative. It’s a foundational part of how we operate, grow and lead. As we’ve expanded, we’ve worked intentionally to build a company where people feel appreciated, supported, challenged and connected to meaningful work.That’s not always easy during periods of growth. Maintaining a strong culture takes commitment, communication and leaders who genuinely care about people. It takes teammates who show up every day wanting to make each other better. And it takes an organization willing to invest in leadership development, recognition, professional growth, flexibility and well-being.What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that it came directly from our teammates.We had 56% participation in the survey — significantly higher than the average participation rate for these programs. To me, that says something important: our people care. They care enough to engage, share feedback and help shape what Primis becomes next.The awards recognized strengths across multiple areas, including:Culture Excellence AwardsTop Workplaces for Appreciation Top Workplaces for Compensation & Benefits Top Workplaces for Employee Well-Being Top Workplaces for InnovationTop Workplaces for Leadership Top Workplaces for Professional Development Top Workplaces for Work-Life FlexibilityIndustry AwardsFinancial Services Top WorkplacesThat’s something our entire team should be proud of.Culture impacts more than the employee experience. It influences how teams collaborate, how customers are served, how leaders lead and how companies grow. It helps attract great talent, retain strong teammates and build trust in the marketplace.And in banking especially, that matters.In an industry that can sometimes feel transactional or overly corporate, we want Primis to feel different. We want people to feel connected to leadership, empowered to grow and proud of where they work.We know there’s still work ahead. Great cultures are never “finished.” But this recognition is an encouraging reminder that we’re building something special together.Most importantly, these awards belong to our teammates. They are the reason Primis continues to grow, evolve and stand apart.
