Associated Bank hosted its first companywide Volunteer Day of Service July 26.
Hundreds of colleagues from more than 100 communities volunteered in activities such as packaging, sorting and organizing food to ensure food security and efficient distribution to those in need.
This includes Green Bay, Fox Valley, the Lakeshore and more.
“Community means something really special at Associated Bank – and for our colleagues, that starts with volunteering,” said Andy Harmening, president and CEO, Associated Bank. “Our Volunteer Day of Service was focused on food security because it supports a basic need across all our markets and it is a cause that our colleagues are passionate about.”
