Dangriga, Belize – November 18, 2026 — Belize Bank is proud to celebrate another meaningful milestone in its 14-year partnership with Hand in Hand Ministries’ Building for Change program. This year, the Bank presented Ms. Mirza Ariola, a devoted mother of five from Dangriga Town, with the keys to her new home—marking the 14th family supported through this life-changing initiative. For more than a decade, Belize Bank has stood firmly behind Building for Change, recognizing that providing safe, dignified housing is a powerful way to uplift families and strengthen communities across Belize.

The recent home build brought out the true spirit of service as the Dangriga Branch team—employees, spouses, and children—volunteered alongside Hand in Hand Ministries to help make Ms. Ariola’s dream a reality. From hands-on construction support to words of encouragement, the collective effort showcased the Bank’s deep-rooted culture of compassion and community involvement. For Ms. Ariola, the new home represents stability, hope, and a brighter future for her children—making this Christmas especially meaningful.

Belize Bank shared that its continued support of Building for Change reflects a broader mission: to be more than a financial institution by serving as a catalyst for meaningful, positive change in the lives of Belizeans. “Belize Bank’s partnership with Hand in Hand Ministries reflects our deep commitment to community engagement and philanthropy. It underscores our role not only as a financial institution but also as a catalyst for meaningful, positive change in the lives of Belizeans.
