TWELVE COMMUNITIES COME TOGETHER TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
 
During the month of March, Northview Bank hosted a Food Drive in all twelve of their branch locations. The Food Drive was started to team up with the community to help give back to those in need. Donation boxes were provided in each of the branches and collected a total of 2,516 pounds of food to donate to local non-profits. Some of the non-profits include Family Pathways of Sandstone, Moose Lake Area Food Shelf, Tri-Community Food Shelf, Floodwood Area Food Shelf, Deer River Area Food Shelf, Bruno Area Food Shelf, Second Harvest Food Shelf, and Hubbard County Food Shelf.
 
To encourage donations, Northview Bank ran a friendly branch competition, encouraging each of their branch locations to use their creativity to create donation boxes in the branch lobbies. The contest was ran through their Facebook page, with their Askov branch winning the competition by creating a
“Northview Banks Most Wanted” design!
 
At the end of the competition, all branches weighed their donations. The totals were: Askov – 215 lbs, Barnum – 99 lbs, Cromwell – 41 lbs, Deer River – 153 lbs, Finlayson 410, Floodwood – 81 lbs, Grand Rapids – 415 lbs, Hinckley – 109 lbs, Kerrick – 70 lbs, Park Rapids – 489 lbs, Sandstone – 334 lbs, and Willow River – 100 lbs.
 
“Northview Bank is a community bank that loves to give back to the communities we live and work in. Our Food Drive allows us to continue to support those in need within our neighborhoods.” – Paula Diaz, Northview Bank President/CEO
