The Countybank Foundation, established in 1971 representing Countybank and Greenwood Capital, recently donated $6,500 to Anderson Interfaith Ministries (AIM).

Michael Wooles, Senior Vice President and Anderson Market Executive for Countybank, and Peggy Chamblee, Vice President and Financial Center Manager for Countybank, presented the check on behalf of the foundation to Kristi King-Brock, Executive Director of AIM, and Susan Anderson, Vice President of Resource Development for AIM.

The recent donation from Countybank and Greenwood Capital will go toward AIM events throughout the year geared toward raising money for struggling individuals and families in Anderson County. “Countybank and Greenwood Capital are pleased to continue this important partnership with AIM,” said Wooles. “We see their extraordinary work building up our community by providing a helping hand and supporting those in need.”

Countybank and Greenwood Capital associates are actively involved in supporting AIM’s events and fundraising activities throughout the year. Countybank currently serves as the main sponsor for AIM’s All-In dinner and silent auction. And last year Countybank and Greenwood Capital associates participated in AIM’s annual shoe drive, donating more than 1,000 gently worn, used, and new shoes.

Most recently associates at Countybank’s Anderson financial center participated in AIM’s annual Hearts for Helping fundraiser. “The Hearts for Helping fundraiser is just one of many opportunities for our associates, and the community, to come together in support of a great cause that can positively impact someone’s life,” said Chamblee.

“AIM is grateful for Countybank and Greenwood Capital’s continued partnership in helping us fulfill our mission of providing resource, support, and education, which leads our clients to self-sufficiency,” said Kristi King-Brock, Executive Director of AIM. “Together we are ‘Giving Hope and Changing Lives.’”

AIM provides emergency assistance, education and workforce development, a housing program, hunger ministries, and manages the Women and Children Succeeding program.
