SAVANNAH, Ga. - EntSun -- ATLANTA / SAVANNAH / Hilton Head Island, SC (February 2, 2026) — Coastal States Bank ("CSB"), a local community bank, donated $136,000 to Georgia and South Carolina-based charities and nonprofits in 2025.

The contributions were made through CSB's Community Commitment, an employee-funded, bank-matched initiative designed to address the diverse needs of the communities the bank serves. Through its Community Commitment, CSB provides grants to local nonprofit organizations focused on strengthening communities across its footprint in Metro Atlanta, North Georgia, Savannah and South Carolina's Lowcountry region.

Stone, CSB's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Their commitment to giving both time and resources each year reflects who we are as a community bank."
