Our annual food drive throughout the month of March was a great success! With the support of employees and clients, we collected non-perishable food and monetary items to help neighbors in need. Fun “Themed Dress Up Days” and raffle incentives added energy to the month and helped raise $476, alongside contributions from our BankCherokee employees and clients. We were proud to offer a match and even go above and beyond these efforts, resulting in $500 donations to each of the following organizations: Neighborhood House, Keystone Community Services, and Vadnais Heights Food Shelf. Thank you to everyone who donated and participated in making a difference. We are looking forward to next year!
