Our Concordia branch location has come up with the idea to start a fundraising effort called ‘Blue Jeans for Charity’. Every last Friday of the month, employees can donate $3.00 in exchange for a chance to wear blue jeans to work that day. The bank then matches employee contributions and donates the money to a local charity each quarter.

March 25th marks the end of the first quarter for this new program and employees have chosen Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cloud County for the first donation. Funds raised amount to $250.00! The local paper will be on site to cover the event.

Jodi Rehbein, a CSR in Concordia, got the idea to start this, in part, because of the ‘Pay it Forward’ campaign. Rehbein indicated that, “The bank will display a countertop sign on the day we wear jeans, so our customers know why we are dressing down. It also gives them an opportunity to find out more about the charities we choose to support”.
