"Giving back to Northwest Arkansas has been a top priority for The Bank of Fayetteville since our beginning in 1987, and it will continue to be as we move forward. From healthcare, education, youth programs, and the arts we are committed to playing a significant role in developing programs that help develop our community. We recognize the power of volunteerism, contributing financial resources, as well as collaborating with other local businesses and non-profits to help make our community a better place to live and work."
Mary Beth Brooks
President and CEO, The Bank of Fayetteville
The magnitude of the bank's support of the community is as diverse as it has been generous. It began before the bank doors opened with donations by the board members and the bank organization to support the Red Cross Building fund. The Bank of Fayetteville is a big supporter of Washington Regional Hospital, the WRMC Foundation, Fayetteville Public Education Foundation, Boys and Girls Club, Fayetteville Public Library, Walton Arts Center, Seven Hills Homeless Shelter, Lifestyles, Fayetteville Public Education Foundation, United Way and numerous other community projects and organizations. There have been book-signings for area authors, bake sales for community churches, receptions for local celebrities, art exhibits and even piano recitals in the lobby of our Main Bank. The bank's success has been based on a combination of active involved stockholders, bank partners and board members that are committed to this community.
