Premier Non-Profit Interest Checking

Lighthouse Bank is dedicated to supporting the organizations which help to make a difference in our community. One of the many ways we demonstrate that commitment is by offering 501(c)(3) organizations access to our Premier Non-Profit Interest Checking - an account which pays an extremely competitive interest rate.  We designed these specialized banking and cash management tools with the unique needs of non-profit organizations in mind.
