First Community Bank raised more than $16,000 for breast cancer
research. Throughout October 2022, the community bank in
Batesville, Ark., participated in White River Health System's Paint
the Town Pink initiative to raise awareness and money for breast
cancer research and the medical organization's equipment.
" Our culture is deeply rooted in the values of service and
philanthropy, " said Justin Taylor, head of events and community
relations at the $2.6 billion-asset community bank. " We believe
strong communities are built with local volunteers. "
The community bank held fundraising initiatives like Blue
Jeans Fridays, and soup and chili sales. There was even a Kiss the
Alpaca contest in which employees decorated donation boxes
that were put in the lobby next to piggy banks. The employee
whose piggy bank had the most money by the end of October
got to meet a furry alpaca friend and kiss the animal in front of
fellow bank employees, as well as a reporter from the local news.
In total, First Community Bank donated $16,580 to White River
Health Foundation for breast cancer research. The bank's efforts
also spread awareness about ongoing developments in breast
cancer research to its community.
" We're a community bank, so I feel like supporting the
community and doing fundraisers like this is a good way to give
back to it, " Taylor said. -Christopher Garritty
