eNews: Celebrating Individual and Organizational Leadership

This week's shoutout is to the local financial institutions who are leading the way in processing loans for small businesses through the Paycheck Protection Program. We want to say THANK YOU to everyone in our community who has worked tirelessly to keep our business community going. Employers that bank with Stillwater institutions have received more than $80 million through this program! Our community is in good hands. As always, we'd like your feedback and welcome any suggestions on how we can continue to advocate for Stillwater businesses.
