Planters Bank Donates Over $35,000 to Local Non-Profit Organizations in Annual Season of Giving

During the eighth annual Planters Bank Season of Giving, 12 community organizations were supported throughout Western Kentucky and Tennessee. The Planters Bank giveback campaign resulted in 12 area organizations receiving a total of $35,630.11.

The Planters Bank Season of Giving is a bank tradition that has a goal of supporting community organizations. Planters Bank CEO Elizabeth McCoy says, “Each organization we supported this Season of Giving supports children in each of our communities. Whether it’s providing shoes, food, or experiences, each of these 12 organizations make such an impact on our communities, and we’re so glad to be able to support them.”

Planters Bank worked with a local small business to produce two special custom gift items for the Season of Giving - one Kentucky gift and one Tennessee gift, sold in each Planters Bank branch. Planters Bank purchased the items outright, allowing 100% of the purchase price of those items ($20/gift) to be donated to the Season of Giving organizations.
