Individual Contributions

First Business and its 150 employees are involved in the community in many ways. A recent employee survey indicated First Business employees volunteer free time to 154 local organizations and sit on 76 local boards and committees. First Business employees are also involved in corporate community activities such as United Way's Day of Caring.

First Business was recently awarded a Wisconsin Corporate Citizenship Award by Corporate Report Magazine in recognition for its community support and employee relations.

Corporate Contributions

Directors and staff of the bank wholeheartedly support making contributions to local charitable organizations in our market area. Our employees are approached individually by acquaintances, friends, and organizations and the giving process is difficult. In 2004, First Business established the First Business Charitable Foundation, Inc. to provide a funding mechanism and appropriate record keeping for the charitable contributions of First Business.
