Message from the President

On March 9^th, the WBA, Northwest Harvest, and the Sinclair media group (KOMO and related stations) are teaming up to launch our third annual Bankers Care spring food drive.  Our goal is make it a “Million Meal March” by collecting enough donations of cash and non-perishable food to provide one million meals to the hungry throughout our communities. 

With 22 banks and nearly 525 branches in the Puget Sound region participating, the Bankers Care spring food drive is a perfect example of the types of community-building efforts undertaken by bankers throughout our state each and every day.  Throughout the promotion period we will be sharing different ways to get involved and the stories of bankers who are doing an exceptional job in supporting this important work.

In the meantime, there are plenty of ways for you to donate.  All donations go to Northwest Harvest and local food banks throughout the region.  Go to www.BankersCare.com for more details on the Million Meal March campaign and to find out how you can join the WBA in lending a hand in our community.
