Sunflower Bank is going big to raise funds and gain volunteers for Big Brothers Big Sisters. From July 1, through Sept. 30, Sunflower Bank and local Big Brothers Big Sisters chapters are teaming up to increase the number of adult volunteers, help children in need find a mentor, and raise $50,000.
“Partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters is a great opportunity for us to fulfill our mission of Creating Possibility for people right here in our communities,” said Mollie Carter, president and CEO of Sunflower Bank. “Helping children in need find mentors to guide them into a successful adulthood is important. We are proud to help and support such a worthy program.”
To reach their goal of $50,000, Sunflower Bank will donate 5¢ for every swipe of a Sunflower Bank debit card, now through Sept. 30th.  Additionally, representatives and volunteers from Big Brothers Big Sisters will team up with local Sunflower branches to host educational events for their communities. Customers and non-customers can also make donations to specific Big Brothers Big Sisters chapters by going to www.sunflowerbank.com/BBBS.
Big Brothers Big Sisters strives to create and support relationships that provide consistent, positive, one-to-one interaction between a single-parent child and an adult volunteer who will be an advisor and friend on the journey from childhood to adulthood. Both the adult and child receive great mutual benefit as they learn from each other and together help create a more positive future.
