Fifth Third traces its origins to the Bank of the Ohio Valley, which opened its doors in Cincinnati in 1858.
Fifth Third Center 38 Fountain Square Plaza Cincinnati, OH 45263
In 1871, the Bank of the Ohio Valley was purchased by the Third National Bank. With the turn of the century came the union of the Third National Bank and the Fifth National Bank, and eventually the organization became known as "Fifth Third Bank."
Fifth Third Bank has a rich legacy of community support. In 1948, it became the first financial institution in the United States to establish a charitable foundation. Today, it continues to invest the time, resources, and people to help build a better tomorrow in the communities it serves.

The Fifth Third Bank lapel pin was created in 1983 as part of a suggestion box campaign. If an employee's suggestion was implemented, he/she was rewarded with a lapel pin. After the suggestion box campaign ended, the extra pins were distributed throughout the corporate office.
In 1989, Fifth Third introduced its Hall of Fame pin, commemorating longtime spokesman Johnny Bench's election to the Baseball Hall of Fame.
In 2001, the lapel pin went magnetic after employees shared concern about damaging their blouses and suits with the pushpin. In 2004, Fifth Third Bank introduced a silver pin option in addition to the gold.
In October of 2007 the Fifth Third pin went pink to commemorate the national breast cancer awareness month and to raise money for the American Cancer Society's Making Strides Against Breast Cancer campaign.
In 2008, employees received commemorative anniversary pins to celebrate Fifth Third's 150th year in banking.
