Stillman Bank’s annual Christmas Food Drive a huge success

    In the spirit of giving back this holiday season, Stillman Bank held a food drive to benefit area families this Christmas. 1,006 pounds of non-perishable food items were collected during the two-week event. Now in its 14th year, this annual food drive has collected over 14,000 pounds of food since its inception in 2008.

    The Christmas Food Drive kicked off at all Stillman Bank locations on Nov. 24 and continued through Dec. 8. Donations were made just in time for Christmas to several area food pantries including: Bread of Life pantry in Stillman Valley, People Helping People in Byron, Lifeline Food and Self-Help Project in Oregon, Rochelle Christian Food Pantry in Rochelle, Old Stone Church Food Pantry in Rockton, and Rock River Valley Pantry in Rockford.

    Stillman Bank wishes a huge thanks to everyone who stopped by their branches to contribute to this great cause. For more information on Stillman Bank or to find out more about Stillman’s products and services, please contact visit www.stillmanbank.com.
