Corporate Responsibility

State Bank of Lizton strongly believes in supporting the communities it serves. We believe the strength of our company is tied to the strength of the communities where we do business. We support numerous organizations, utilizing both economic and social investment programs, including charitable gifts, community relations activities, and sponsorships.

Through our Red Wagon Brigade, our employees and their families are encouraged to volunteer their time and efforts for various nonprofit charitable organizations, serve on community, foundation, and school boards and task forces, and are encouraged to become actively involved in their communities.

What we do support:

• Organizations that deliver benefit to the communities from which the donations were generated
• Or are located in the areas State Bank of Lizton serves

What we do not support:

• Political Contributions
• Beauty or talent contests
• Individuals, individual scholarship (not including our Community Bankers Scholarship program), or travel support
• Other foundations affiliated with a for-profit company

What we look for:

• Opportunities where moderate funding can affect significant results within the community
• Opportunities that position the Bank as a leader in the corporate community
• Opportunities that raise money for the benefit of non-profits in the neighborhoods we serve
• Opportunities that show evidence of employee interest and involvement that is more than fund raising
