Last year, we contributed thousands of dollars to area schools, charitable fundraisers and community events. Our employees also spent countless hours volunteering in the community. Giving back is at the heart of what it means to be a #communitybank! @JohnBuhr @capregchamber @ICBA

Using a Community Bank is always an option! Serial fraudsters like @Ask_WellsFargo will never change, or be controlled. Too Big To Fail is also Too Big To Regulate! @ICBA @FirstScotia @IBANYS
After prior banking issues and then the PPP debacle, I much prefer smaller local banks when it's an option. Check out banks like @CitizensEdmond
& @JillCastilla
