Aaron’s Acres is pleased to share another business that supports Aaron’s Acres: Presence Bank! We are happy to have made a new connection with their company and look forward to seeing our relationship with them grow. Employees have supported our organization by volunteering their time as summer camp photographers, attending our anniversary event and hosting dress down days.

Most recently, Relationship Manager Lori Bennett presented Director of Development & Community Relations Kate Mullen and Executive Director Risa Paskoff with a check from their most recent Dress Down Day.

We caught up with Lori Bennett and asked her about Presence Bank, their new relationship with our organization, and her thoughts about Aaron’s Acres. Here is what she had to say:

Presence Bank’s purpose statement is “We will strive to be the most loved bank that allows our families, customers, and communities to prosper.” We take pride in our focus on our families, customers and communities. In doing this we align our hearts with many of our Not-for-Profits, because they hold such an important part of our communities. We believe listening to needs, for businesses or individuals, and finding the way to help them meet their dreams and goals, is how we succeed as well. We also understand that Not-for-Profits have unique needs. We are small in numbers with less than 40 employees, but jointly share is a culture to give back and service. We have enjoyed volunteering as photographers at camp, celebrating with you on your exciting 25^th Anniversary Celebration, and sharing a “Jeans Day” donation from all employees & the bank. We are excited to continue these things as we continue to grow our relationship with Aaron’s Acres.

Presence Bank has a new relationship with Aaron’s Acres, but personally, my history goes back over 12 years, when my daughter became a Buddy for camp. I was blown away with how Aaron’s Acres was a beautiful gift to some many families. Not just the campers, but for all involves, it was an amazing life changing experience, including for my daughter.

Lori Bennett, Relationship Manager, Presence Bank
