United Commercial Bank is a CAlifornia-based bank engaged in banking activities in New England through its corporate and branch offices located in the Greater Boston area. UCB has been providing a full range of commercial and consumer banking services to small businesses, the Asian American community, other immigrant communities, and the general public at large for over 10 years.

UCB offers an opportunity to residents and business owners of Chinatown to invest their money in a financial institution that gives back to their own community; services are all offered in Chinese and English. For the benefit of a close-knit neighborhood like Chinatown, it is imperative that community members support the businesses and institutions that support them in return. The Bank helps facilitate that process, allowing more of the money that is made in the community to be spent and invested in the community, making for stronger bonds between residents, businesses, and other organizations. Being involved in the Chinatown Heritage Project reinforces the commitment to encouraging people to appreciate the resources available to our community in Chinatown.

UCB is known as an upstanding corporation that came from within Chinatown specifically for the needs of the neighborhood. Because of United Commercial Bank, the Chinatown Heritage Project has a valuable connection to local and regional businesses, which might otherwise be unaware of the important work being done around history and education in Chinatown. The Bank has made no secret of its enthusiasm for the project, even installing the Chinatown Heritage Project’s first public exhibit in its own storefront window.
