CENTRAL VALLEY COMMUNITY BANK DONATES TO LOCAL FOOD BANKS,
CHALLENGES OTHER BUSINESSES TO DO THE SAME
Central Valley Community Bank is excited to announce its donation to ten food banks in its territory, while also challenging other business to join the effort to fund local food banks. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, many in our region did not have sufficient income to provide basic needs including food for their families. Since the pandemic, massive job losses due to the shelter-in-place mandates of nonessential businesses and school closures has created an unprecedented need for services provided by food banks. It is anticipated that this food insecurity will continue to escalate in the coming months and longer.
Central Valley Community Bank has a long history of giving to local food banks. To date, our 2020 Business Food Fund donation is $8,000 covering ten local food banks in our communities – but we want local business to join us in this effort.
