May 29 (5/29) is known as National 529 Day—a dedicated reminder to start planning for your child’s future education with a 529 college savings plan. At FNB Investments, we believe there’s no better time than today to begin building a strong financial foundation for tomorrow.
A 529 plan is a tax-advantaged savings plan specifically designed to help families save for education expenses. Whether you’re saving for a four-year university, trade school, or even K-12 tuition, a 529 plan offers flexibility and peace of mind.
Tax Advantages
• Tax-free growth on earnings when used for qualified education expenses
• Tax-free withdrawals for tuition, books, room & board, and more
Use at Eligible Schools Nationwide
• From colleges to vocational programs, your savings can go where your child’s dreams take them.
Minimal Impact on Financial Aid
• As a parental asset, 529 plans have a relatively low impact on FAFSA calculations.
You Stay in Control
• The account owner—not the student—retains control of the funds, regardless of age.
Saving early—even in small amounts—can have a powerful impact thanks to compound growth over time. Delaying even a few years could significantly reduce what’s available. The earlier you start, the better your chances of reducing future debt for you and your child.
A 529 plan also makes a thoughtful gift. Grandparents, relatives, and even friends can contribute to the plan. It’s a meaningful way to celebrate birthdays, holidays, and milestones.
At FNB Investment Services, we’re here to help you navigate your college savings options with confidence. Our team can walk you through:
• How a 529 plan works
• Which plan fits your family’s goals
• How to open and manage your account
• Long-term strategies for education and beyond

FNB Bank is proud to announce the success of our Spring Into Giving Food Drive, thanks to the incredible generosity of our employees, customers, and community partners. Together, we collected approximately 1,100 food and personal hygiene items, along with $200 in monetary donations, all benefiting five local food banks across our service areas:
Thank you to all who helped us make this food drive a success. A special thank you goes to Southern Family Dental of Murray for their generous donation of toothbrushes and toothpaste, helping us expand the reach of our efforts.
The Spring Into Giving Food Drive is a project of FNB Bank’s inaugural LEAD (Leadership, Education, and Development) Class. The LEAD Class is comprised of six employees from all different offices/departments and market areas who share a common goal of further developing their leadership skills and banking knowledge within FNB. As part of being in the LEAD Class, the group was charged with the task of coordinating a community service project to benefit each of FNB’s communities. The goal of the project is to give back to local food pantries that selflessly serve those in need on a daily basis. Donations to these organizations tend to decline after the holidays, and the project’s goal is to help raise awareness and give these organizations the boost they need for the spring and summer months.

April is Community Banking Month, which the Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) calls “a celebration of the independent spirit and unwavering commitment of community banks to help consumers and small businesses achieve their financial goals to create communities of prosperity nationwide.” In April, PRI (Profit Resources Incorporated) is celebrating some of the excellent community banks that we’re fortunate to work with and observe up close what sets them apart in their communities. We spoke to First Kentucky Bank and FNB Bank of Mayfield, Ky., to learn how they set aside their roles as competitors to join forces to help rebuild their community after a devastating tornado leveled it.
___________________________
On Dec. 10 and 11 of 2021, a monster EF-4 tornado tore a path of destruction across some 165 miles in Kentucky. Mayfield, a town of around 10,000 people, was practically leveled and 24 people perished in the storm. More than three years later, Mayfield and the larger Graves County are still in the process of rebuilding several downtown mainstays, like the county courthouse, city hall and the police department.
In the aftermath of the storm, two competing community banks, both based in Mayfield, decided to combine efforts to help rebuild the place they’ve each called home since the late 1800s. First Kentucky Bank and FNB Bank partnered to provide a special loan and incentive program for businesses impacted by the tornado and called it DREAM Together. DREAM stands for Downtown Revitalization and Economic Advancement for Mayfield. Together, the banks are providing incentives and low interest loans for businesses that want to rebuild and reinvest in downtown Mayfield. The joint goal of FKB and FNB is to stimulate economic development and bring jobs back to one of the hardest hit areas in their community.
Stacy Overby, Chief Credit Officer of First Kentucky Bank, said they were in contact with FNB Bank from the beginning after the devastating tornado. At first, it was just to offer general help as neighbors to FNB, which suffered extensive damage to its buildings. But within weeks, the two banks were sitting down together to brainstorm about ways they could help the community of Mayfield as well.
“We asked what we could do together to help revitalize downtown in the longer term,” Overby said. “What do these folks need quickly and what can we provide? First Kentucky and FNB are the two local banks with local ownership, and it was vital to us to get something started. We met and came up with the program that we have today.”
Tyler Goodman, Assistant Vice President at FNB Bank, said they all recognized the importance of getting resources to the community quickly to facilitate rebuilding efforts. While awaiting insurance claim processing and FEMA funds, which can be delayed by complicated application requirements and the sheer magnitude of the devastation, many downtown businesses needed funds right away to continue to operate. In addition, as Mayfield was just coming out of the COVID pandemic, inflation was beginning to rise, and the cost of building materials had jumped sharply. Many found that insurance was simply not enough to cover the gap.
“With the DREAM Together program, we were able to lay out simplified parameters, offer attractive incentives and more favorable interest rates than they could get on the open market and get our customers their money promptly,” Goodman said. “Both banks set aside significant amounts of money for incentives for new or returning businesses because it was important for folks in the community where we all live and work to see downtown come back. Providing people with definitive answers and clarity really helped as they navigated some tough situations.”
Overby said they have approved loans that range from $15,000 to $1 million and paid incentives of more than $400,000 since the program began. The DREAM Together program is designed to help businesses of all sizes. The two banks committed up to $10 million combined in loans for the initiative, and they expect that DREAM will ramp up again soon as construction begins on some of the cornerstone downtown employers and government buildings, such as the city hall, county courthouse and police station.
“It’s a benefit to both banks and very encouraging to see downtown come back and become as vibrant as it once was,” Overby said. “When a natural disaster hits – or even when there’s just a mutual desire to help support and revitalize a community – it’s a good time to take off the competitive gloves a bit and have a spirit of cooperation. It not only makes good economic sense for the community and the banks, but I think it gives the community a good feeling to see two of the cornerstone institutions in Mayfield and Graves County coming together to benefit everybody.”
Goodman said the local nature of the DREAM Together program makes it special. The banks cooperatively designed DREAM to cater to their community and the immediate needs at hand. It was not a one-size-fits-all approach, which also makes it unique.
“We’re able to evaluate what our community needs based on the situation and make decisions locally, which is important,” he said. “You don’t have to appeal to Frankfort or Washington. You’re not waiting for someone you’ll never meet to make these decisions. It’s your neighbors and the people you see at school or the ball fields. It’s encouraging to see, and it shows that people do cooperate. Businesses get along, and it’s for the betterment of the community and the people who call Mayfield and Graves County home, more than for themselves.”
Overby expects that DREAM Together will continue to be part of helping to rebuild Mayfield, and the banks still have significant funds to distribute. He says if any Mayfield business has need for a loan or thinks they qualify for an incentive, they can contact a commercial lender at either bank who will walk them through the process.
