Awarded to a bank who developed the service program less than three years ago.
When a service program lasts for decades, it becomes part of the fabric of a community. That is clearly the case with $500 million-asset Gulf Coast Bank and its partner, Boys & Girls Clubs of Acadiana.
For the past 35 years, Gulf Coast Bank in Abbeville, Louisiana, has been a supporter of Boys & Girls Clubs of Acadiana’s annual fundraiser. Since 2009, the bank has raised almost $700,000 for the 501(c)(3) nonprofit, which provides low-cost afterschool and summer programs for the region’s youth who need them most.
For more than 50 years, leading financial institutions and businesses have relied on FIS financial technology to power their mission-critical operations.
