Wolverine Bank

For over 75 years, Wolverine Bank was committed to serving the financial needs of its neighbors and friends in the mid-Michigan area with a full range of quality financial services. Wolverine Bank was awarded BauerFinancial, Inc.’s 5-star rating for financial strength and stability for 20 consecutive years. This “Exceptional Performance Bank” was among the top 1.2% of banks nationally able to claim this distinction. The bank put a priority on community service and involvement, supporting a variety of programs, including those which support education, people with special needs, and affordable home ownership. The Wolverine Bank name was retired in 2017, and any remaining branches are now known by the name of the parent company, Horizon Bank.

David Dunn, the bank’s President and CEO at the time, was a member of the SVSU Foundation Board of Directors and the SVSU Board of Fellows. Under his leadership, the bank established the scholarship fund in 1999 and has continued to enhance it over the years making scholarship opportunities available to a growing number of SVSU students.
