Bear State Bank Launches ‘Bear Down on Hunger’

Bear State Bank has launched their ‘Bear Down on Hunger’ campaign for the 2015 Holiday Season. Vice President Jennifer Maechler said, “Bear State Bank wants to give back to our community. We are bearing down on hunger and we need your help.”

They are collecting canned goods and non-perishable items for the Assembly of God Food Bank. For every can that you bring into the Main bank and deposit into their collection box you will be entered to win a cart full of Thanksgiving dinner fixings. The drawing will be held November 23rd and they are giving away 4 dinners. Maechler said they have collected over 250 cans so far but are looking to gather many more.
