Two Bluffton banks stepped up and assisted the Bluffton, Beaverdam and Richland Township United Way in a very significant way, according to Neil Reichenbach. United Way treasurer.
He told The Icon, “The United Way of Bluffton, Beaverdam, and Richland Township would like to give a big thank you to Citizens National Bank and First National Bank for helping toward our national United Way dues.”
Reichenbach said that each bank donated $500. For the 2015-2016 campaign year, the national dues increased from $500 to $1,500.
Once the dues are paid, all other money raised stays local to help organizations like:
• Bluffton Hospital Auxiliary
• American Red Cross
• Bluffton Community Preschool
• Bluffton Senior Center
• Bluffton Child Development Center
• Bluffton Family Recreation
• Boy Scouts of American
• Girl Scouts of Western Ohio
• Weekday Christian Education
• Bluffton Community Assistance Corp

Persons wanting to contribution to the local United Way, may stop by Citizens National Bank.
“You can also ask your employer about payroll deduction,” said Reichenbach.
