ICBA's National Community Bank
Service Awards is a moment to
celebrate the community banks that
have stepped up for their communities in
significant ways. This year, all community
banks have faced a huge challenge in
the COVID-19 pandemic. So, instead of
highlighting a few winners, this year we
are honoring all community banks. Here,
we share just some of the many inspiring
stories ICBA members submitted.

n early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic sent shockwaves around the world.
But as a health and economic crisis set in across the U.S., community
bankers stepped up, providing support to their communities in the most
challenging of circumstances.
As community bankers, it's natural to come together in both good and bad
times. Your communities have endured the devastation of fi res, tornadoes,
fl oods and much more in years past, but 2020 has brought a crisis unlike
any other in living memory. And when it came time for this year's National
Community Bank Service Awards, your response was overwhelming
and inspiring.

The greatest takeaway from the many entries ICBA received was of a huge
collective eff ort among community banks, which pulled together and did
whatever was needed to serve. Community bankers told stories of working long
days-even on weekends and holidays-to process loans; of leaders purchasing
lunches to feed their employees and support struggling local restaurants; of
community banks amassing large donations to food banks and nearby charities;
