Forcht Bank is asking the public to donate new winter gloves for children in need during their “Warm Hand – Warm Hearts” glove drive starting November 18th.
The public is encouraged to drop off new pairs of gloves – sized infant to teen – at any Forcht Bank location between November 18th and December 31st. All gloves will then be collected and delivered to School Resource Centers and other local charities for distribution to children in need beginning January 2, 2014.
“There is truly nothing more important than the children in our communities. We’re excited and proud to help local kids stay warm during the colder months ahead,” said Forcht Bank President Tucker Ballinger. The bank will also donate $10 for every checking account opened during the glove drive to purchase additional gloves.
Forcht Bank is a Kentucky-owned community bank with approximately $1 billion in assets and 30 banking centers in 12 counties – Fayette, Jefferson, Boone, Grant, Madison, Taylor, Pulaski, Laurel, Whitley, Knox, McCreary and Green. www.forchtbank.com Member FDIC.
