Matching Funds Holiday Donation Program 2023

Here to lend a hand

We’re proud to continue our Holiday Matching Funds program this year! By raising critical funding and awareness for important organizations, we're able to make a meaningful impact together. Each of our nine branches has chosen a local organization for which it will collect gifts or monetary donations.

As an extra motivation, Prevail Bank will match the public’s monetary donations, dollar for dollar, up to a total of $1,000 per organization! Anyone can contribute; a person does not need to be a bank customer to participate. All donations need to be presented to the bank by December 8^th.
