Another Year of Paying It Forward
Starting at its annual Christmas party in December 2007, State Bank & Trust gave its employees a very special Christmas gift: the opportunity to "pay it forward" to those in need. We've given every full-time employee $1,000 and every part-time employee $500 to use to help others - a total commitment of more than half a million dollars annually. Each employee chooses how to give their Pay It Forward funds to individuals, families or organizations in need. This gift has been replicated in 2009 and 2010, and will be a tradition at State Bank & Trust for years to come. We know some of the project's first stories of giving will touch your heart as they have touched ours.
