On Friday October 4, our employees staged an in-house fund drive to help area victims of the recent high winds and flooding from Hurricane Helene. At the end of the day, those employees had donated a total of $3,815 in relief funds. Two employee donations early this week increased this amount to $3,890. The Bank matched this amount by a factor of five, which added $19,450 to the fund for a total of $23,340. The bank then rounded that number up to an even $25,000.
We are very grateful to our employees for their big hearts and their love of their communities!
We have now begun work with the Smyth County Community Foundation to build upon and maximize the large portion of our donation that are designated for disaster victims in Smyth County. The Foundation will add another dollar-for-dollar match of those funds!
Celebrating a century and a half of service to our customers and communities.
