Proud to be part of a community bank that truly invest in building stronger communities day in and day out. It’s more than banking, it’s about making a positive impact where we live and work.

Bravera is proud to pledge $140,000 to the Minot Family YMCA and Prairie Grit Adaptive Sports to replace the north gym floor. This investment strengthens a space that hosts thousands of youth and adults each year through programs that promote health, wellness and inclusion.

“Bravera is committed to building communities and helping people forge their path,” said Bravera Minot Regional President Kelly Perrin. “This project is about more than a gym floor—it’s about creating a space where everyone can belong, play and thrive. We’re honored to support the YMCA and Prairie Grit in their mission to make wellness and participation accessible to all.”

Just wrapped up an incredible week at the Dakota School of Banking in Jamestown, ND! 🎓📚

It was a privilege to attend alongside so many talented coworkers and colleagues from across the region. I walked away with valuable insights—not only for my professional growth, but personal growth too. From learning in the classroom to connecting with new people in the industry, it was an all-around great experience.

Already looking forward to what next year brings! 💼✨
