Great Western Bank selected SCICAP to receive funding under its Making Life Great grants program, which targets innovative programs that enhance the quality of life within the communities in which Great Western Bank serves.

South Central Iowa Community Action Program has local food pantries which are located in Clarke, Decatur, and Wayne County outreach offices. The grant funds are directed toward these food pantries to help them support the needs of these communities.

“Now more than ever, we need to be committed and find ways to be relevant in the communities we serve.” said Mark Borrecco, President and Chief Executive Officer.

In fiscal year 2019, Great Western Bank donated more than $2.5 million in total donations and sponsorships to community groups across its nine-state footprint.
