Community Commitment

Franklin Federal is proud to call Richmond home and has been helping generations of area families gain financial security since 1933. As a local savings bank, serving our community is an important part of our mission. Our dedication is evident through our continued partnerships with neighborhood schools and annual community donations. Financial literacy and housing related issues have been the backbone of our giving for decades.
