During the month of May First Security Bank held their annual collection drive in honor of Memorial Day. Wish list items were collected for care packages to send to deployed troops, new recruits, veterans, wounded warriors and their care givers through Operation Gratitude (www. operationgratitude.com).
“It has been tremendous to see the outpouring of care and gratitude to all our service men and women by our customers, communities and amazing employees,†said Amy Jackson, Executive Vice President – Chief Operating Officer. “This is our second year of collecting for Operation Gratitude, and we more than doubled our collections.â€
Items collected range from handwritten notes from local elementary students as well as employees, to game cards, toothpaste and socks.
