2nd Annual Foster Children Donation Drive

November 16, 2023

by Frandsen Marketing Team

We are excited to announce that the Frandsen employees in our Foley office have decided to continue their annual donation drive for Benton County Foster Kids. This initiative is led by Tracy Riedeman, Pamela Martinez, Brenda Ramler, and Jeremy Johnson. 

The county has experienced a significant increase in the number of foster kids this year. Rising costs of keeping them in diapers and winter clothing have made it difficult for foster families who generously open their homes to care for them.
Pamela Martinez (Sr. CSR) and Brenda Ramler (Universal Banker) stated, “These families have big hearts, and we are grateful for their efforts. Last year, we received heartwarming thank yous, which showed us how much these families appreciated the efforts we made to make things a little easier for them and give the children a happy Christmas. These children deserve a reason to smile and forget about the terrible things they have been through.”  

This year, St. John’s Catholic Church is organizing a Baby Shower to help families in need. Inspired by the story of Mary and Baby Jesus, they are collecting diapers, pull-ups, wipes, and other baby necessities. Additionally, local participating businesses are going to shop for everything on the children's needs and wants list.  

The cash donations received from other businesses will be utilized to buy all the other essential items, such as winter coats, snow pants, boots, hats, and mittens. The Foley team has also kindly taken note of every child's wish and put them on cards. These cards are then lovingly hung on trees at the Auto Bank and main office, making it easier for people to choose a child to shop for. This ensures that the children receive gifts they will truly cherish and enjoy. 

Our Foley office is now open and ready to receive your offer of assistance. Whether you want to volunteer your time, resources, or expertise, they would be grateful for your support. You can visit them in person at our office or contact them via phone. We look forward to hearing from you and appreciate your willingness to help.
