Magical Moments - Community Involvement Ideas
The COVID-19 pandemic required all of us to close our doors and rethink our “normal” community activities. As COVID-19 is coming to a close, Carter Bank & Trust wanted to find a way to boost its local economy in a COVID-friendly way. From that thought evolved the Magical Moments campaign. For every customer account opened, they gave $10 to a nonprofit organization in their community. As a result, over $30,000 was given back to nonprofits in their community. Register for this webinar to learn more about Magical Moments and how you could do something similar in your community.
