Backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government # News & Insights [Home](https://www.libertysavingsbank.com/) News & Insights ## Liberty Savings Bank Recognized as the Best Community Bank for Sarasota-Manatee ![](https://news.libertysavingsbank.com/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-03-07%20at%207.36.53%20AM.png) Recognition is always meaningful — but when it comes from the community you serve every day, it carries even more significance. Related Article: [WHY YOUR MONEY MATTERS MORE AT A COMMUNITY BANK](https://news.libertysavingsbank.com/blog/why-your-money-matters-more-at-a-community-bank) Liberty Savings Bank is proud to be recognized as one of the best banks in Florida and a top community bank serving Sarasota and Manatee counties. From national recognition by respected financial publications to local awards voted on by residents, these honors reflect something simple but powerful: a bank built around people, not just numbers. For more than three decades, Liberty Savings Bank has focused on helping neighbors reach their financial goals, supporting local organizations, and investing in the communities we call home. Here’s what these recognitions mean — and why they matter to the people who bank with us. ## Recognized Among Florida’s Best Banks Liberty Savings Bank was recently recognized by Forbes and Fortune as one of Florida’s Best in Banking, a distinction that highlights financial institutions demonstrating exceptional customer experience, stability, and community impact. This recognition places Liberty among the most trusted banks in the state. ### Awards like this are typically based on multiple factors, including: - Customer satisfaction and trust - Financial strength and stability - Quality of banking products and services - Community involvement - Reputation among consumers and industry experts While national recognition is an honor, Liberty’s leadership believes the real measure of success isn’t awards — it’s the relationships built with customers across Sarasota and Manatee counties.   ## Voted “Best of Venice” by the Community Liberty Savings Bank has also been named Best Bank in the Venice Gondolier’s “Best of Venice” awards. This recognition is particularly meaningful because it comes directly from local residents and customers who vote for their favorite businesses each year. The Best of Venice awards celebrate organizations that consistently provide outstanding service and contribute to the local community. Being chosen by neighbors and customers reinforces Liberty’s mission to provide personalized banking built on trust and relationships. ## Honored as “Best Place to Work” in Best of SRQ Liberty Savings Bank was also recognized in SRQ Magazine’s Best of SRQ awards as a “Best Place to Work.” This community-driven recognition highlights organizations that create positive workplace cultures and meaningful careers throughout Sarasota and the surrounding region. Being named a Best Place to Work reflects the environment Liberty strives to build every day — one where employees feel valued, supported, and empowered to serve customers and the community. At Liberty Savings Bank, the belief is simple: when employees are supported and engaged, customers benefit as well. ### That culture is built around: - A team-first mindset - Opportunities for professional growth - A shared commitment to serving the community - A workplace that values integrity, collaboration, and service For Liberty Savings Bank, this recognition represents more than workplace satisfaction — it reflects a team dedicated to helping neighbors reach their financial goals and strengthening the Sarasota-Manatee community. ## A Community Bank Built Around People What sets Liberty Savings Bank apart from larger national banks is simple: relationships come first. For over 30 years, Liberty has served families, retirees, and local businesses throughout Sarasota and Manatee counties. ### Instead of focusing solely on transactions and account numbers, the bank prioritizes: - Helping customers reach financial milestones - Supporting local nonprofits and charities - Providing accessible, friendly banking services - Offering financial guidance tailored to the community This people-first philosophy is what defines a true community bank.   ## Deep Roots in Sarasota and Manatee Counties Liberty Savings Bank has long been committed to supporting the communities where its customers live and work. One of the most meaningful partnerships is with Habitat for Humanity, where the bank and its leadership team have been actively involved for years. ### The bank has helped support homebuilding efforts through: - Volunteer build days - Annual fundraising events - Silent auctions that help fund new homes - Financial contributions to Habitat organizations serving Sarasota and Manatee counties Through this work, Liberty has helped families move closer to the dream of homeownership — a core mission shared by the bank and the organizations it supports.   ## Why Community Recognition Matters Awards like Best of Venice, Best of SRQ, and recognition from Forbes and Fortune are meaningful — but they represent something larger. They reflect the trust customers place in their bank. ### For Liberty Savings Bank, that trust is built through everyday interactions: - Helping someone open their first savings account - Guiding families through the homebuying process - Assisting retirees with managing their savings - Supporting local businesses and nonprofits These are the moments that truly define a community bank.   ## Continuing to Serve Sarasota and Manatee As Liberty Savings Bank looks toward the future, its mission remains the same as it has been for decades: Put people first. Support the community. Help customers reach their financial goals. With continued growth in Sarasota and Manatee counties — including new branch expansion in Lakewood Ranch — Liberty remains committed to providing the personalized banking experience that customers value. Awards may recognize past achievements, but the focus remains firmly on the future.   ## Experience the Liberty Difference If you’re looking for a bank that values relationships, community, and personalized service, Liberty Savings Bank is here to help. Whether you're opening your first account, planning for retirement, or buying a home, Liberty’s team is ready to guide you every step of the way. Because at Liberty Savings Bank, our interest isn’t just in the bottom line — it’s in you.   [![Personal Loan-1](https://news.libertysavingsbank.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Personal%20Loan-1.png?width=600&height=200&name=Personal%20Loan-1.png)](https://value.libertysavingsbank.com/online-banking-consultation) #### Subscribe to our blog *“*They are a hands-on company and have been there every step of the way.*”* **TOM – Local Sarasota Liberty Customer** ## *You can trust liberty* ## Liberty has hundreds of ★★★★★ reviews.
