Little Red Hen Changes Lives
Each year, Golden Valley Bank employees and Directors choose a worthy cause or organization for which to raise funds. This year the employees chose Little Red Hen (LRH) and have been hosting events to raise money. Our Client Services Representative, Leslie holds LRH particularly close to her heart as she is highly involved with the organization with her own son having autism. She suggested an idea to put out a coin jar for folks to donate unused change at the Bank. Our Coin Drive has been active for a month now and we've collected quite a bit of change. We asked Leslie to tell her story and why LRH means so much to her.
