The feeling of belonging extends well beyond
the walls of our banks. It
spreads out into the community that has given us so much. We are proud
of the many employees who generously donate so much of their time in
support of charitable, civic, and professional organizations.

contributions back into the community in the areas of education, the
arts, and community betterment. In the past five years, the bank and
its holding company have contributed over five million dollars back
into the community to these, and many other groups and organizations:
