M&T Bank in Buffalo, N.Y., has a new leader for its charitable foundation. 

Dominique Goss was named executive director of the M&T Charitable Foundation. She now oversees M&T's corporate giving strategy over 12 states.

Goss reports to Mike Keegan, M&T's head of community banking. She is based in Buffalo. 

Goss previously served as senior group manager for corporate citizenship at TD Bank's charitable foundation. 

Goss "is a progressive philanthropic leader whose extensive experience in community development and charitable grants administration will help refine the way we think about corporate citizenship," Keegan said in the release.
