Central National Bank has presented a check for $22,439.48 to the United Way of Junction City - Geary County in support of their 2020 campaign. Central National Bank staff spent the month of October raising funds for United Way.
“I am so proud of the way our team came together to raise funds for this latest United Way drive,” said Amanda Rolfs, Marketing Manager and captain of the United Way team at Central National Bank. “This was my first year leading the campaign and I was blown away by the number of little things that many of our staff members do to contribute, whether it’s doing dishes, decorating pumpkins or lending a hand cleaning up one of our many fun events.”
This is the thirteenth year in a row that Central National Bank has been named a Platinum Pacesetter, a designation given to organizations who raise over $15,000 in funds for the campaign.
“As a community bank, we recognize the importance of giving back to our community,” said Lindsey Snider, Central National Bank, Junction City President. “Each year the staff does a tremendous job with the United Way Campaign here at Central National Bank Junction City. This year’s campaign total of $22,439.48 was a huge team effort; our staff did an amazing job! Much work happens behind the scenes – whether it be dish washing, cooking treats or writing contest rules, the staff consistently goes above and beyond. While the bank itself makes a corporate donation, most of the total funds raised are directly attributable to the efforts and generosity of our staff, either from their personal contributions through our staff payroll deduction program, or from the special activities and events held during our internal United Way Campaign.”
“As a business that has been in Junction City and Geary County for the past 135 years, we want to assist with programs that improve this community and help its citizens. The United Way of Junction City – Geary County provides a tremendous service to this community; Central National Bank is very pleased to be one of the pacesetter organizations with regard to the United Way’s fundraising efforts in this community.”
“On behalf of Central National Bank, I would like to thank the campaign team who organized our internal fundraising campaign, and all of our staff who supported it in such a great way;” added Snider.
The team who led the bank efforts this year consisted of: Amanda Rolfs, Scott Rock, Andrew Haynes, Joel Poole, Pam Diekmann, Danielle Christensen, and Crystal Sinnard.
