LAKEWOOD, Colo., June 26, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FirstBank, one of the nation’s largest privately held banks with a focus on “banking for good,” is providing free food and drinks to the public at several of its branches throughout Colorado every Saturday in July (starting July 6 through July 27) from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
Dubbed “Summer of Savings,” the events are intended to help consumers save without missing out on their favorite warm weather and weekend indulgences.
“We are committed to benefitting our communities, and by picking up the tab for residents, we’re hoping to put money back into thousands of Coloradans’ pockets,” said Emily Robinson, COO of FirstBank. “Our goal is to help people spend less, save more, and support small business at the same time. ‘Banking for good’ is more than a motto to us; it’s how we operate.”
FirstBank, which also provides weekly money saving and financial health tips and tricks, hired over 30 reputable local businesses/business customers across several towns to provide the public free food and drink items – from fresh fruit smoothies to breakfast burritos. Events are first come, first served, while supplies last.
