history

Inspired by the example of savings and loan funds in the current district of Hildesheim that had existed since 1895, today's Volksbank was founded on December 30, 1897. Mainly supported by the craft, it was called the Hildesheim savings and loan association. After many years of economic changes, the bank became Volksbank Hildesheim eGmbH in 1941. After the merger with Volksbank Leinetal in 1989, Volksbank Hildesheim-Leinetal eG was created. In 1999 it then merged with Volksbank Harsum and since then has been known as Volksbank Hildesheim eG.

Social ties and sponsoring

In the Hildesheim region, the Volksbank organized many events related to social, cultural, ecological and current issues. For some years now, the bank has been organizing the award of the "Stars of Sports", in which clubs that were socially very active were given awards. Promoting young people was also an important concern of the Volksbank. She supported competitions such as "Fair brings more" and the "International Youth Competition". Since 2010, one of the largest training fairs in the region has been held every year as the "Night of Applicants" with a total of over 40 exhibitors and over 5,000 visitors.

In addition, the Volksbank was involved in the Theater for Lower Saxony , the HI-REG business development agency, the Hildesheim Foundation University , the University of Applied Science and Art (HAWK) , the Roemer-Pelizaeus-Museum and the City Museum. Together with the VR Foundation of the Volksbanken and Raiffeisenbanken in Northern Germany and the Lower Saxony Volksbanken and Raiffeisenbanken Foundation, it promoted large-scale projects with a supra-local catchment area, such as the 1,000th anniversary of the World Heritage Church of St. Michaelis in 2010, the traditional jazz time of Cycle 66, restorations of listed organs - mainly in the district - the international Hildesheim literature festival Prosanova and much more.
