The new bank, American Bank of Oklahoma, is more than just a place to manage your money—it’s a partner in progress. With a shared commitment to rebuilding and revitalizing Greenwood, the bank is focused on helping residents and aspiring homeowners secure the loans they need to purchase homes, start new chapters, and plant generational roots. Through this partnership, North Tulsa and Greenwood can look forward to expanded access to financial resources and tools that help build wealth—right where it matters most.

Dr. Freeman Culver, President of the historic Greenwood Chamber of Commerce, has been a driving force behind this renaissance. Under his courageous leadership, the Chamber was pulled back from the brink of bankruptcy, back taxes were resolved, and over 50 Black-owned businesses were housed in the last standing buildings on Greenwood Avenue—buildings that now proudly sit on the National Parks Registry thanks to his relentless dedication. Dr. Culver’s passion for Greenwood is restoring pride, purpose, and prosperity in a place that has always been sacred ground.

Now, with the support of this forward-thinking financial institution, the Greenwood Chamber invites you to dream again—of homeownership, business success, and financial freedom.

Support The Greenwood Chamber. Build with the bank. Invest in your legacy.
