FNB Presents Check for $65,000 to Mayfield Graves County Tornado Relief Fund

Written by Chelsea Culp on . Posted in Headlines.

FNB Bank is pleased to announce that a check was presented for $65,000 from funds donated to the general FNB Disaster Recovery Fund to the Mayfield Graves Tornado Relief Fund organization. The Mayfield Graves Tornado Relief Fund is a 501-C3 non-profit organization dedicated to the post-tornado recovery efforts in Mayfield and Graves County.

“FNB is thankful for the many generous donations that were contributed to our Disaster Recovery Fund following the tornado that left our community devastated,” stated Sally Hopkins, FNB Bank President and CEO. “After much consideration, we feel that the Mayfield Graves Tornado Relief Fund and those who are involved within this organization know the needs of our community best and will utilize the $65,000 to maximize the positive impact on those in need in our community.”

The Mayfield Graves Tornado Relief Fund board members include Mayfield Mayor Kathy O’Nan, Graves County Sherriff Jon Hayden, Graves County Judge Executive Jesse Perry, Retired Judge Tim Stark, and others heavily involved with the recovery efforts in Mayfield-Graves County. The organization utilizes a screening process to determine who will qualify for relief funds. The funds are currently being used to provide up to a $1,000 allowance for those who need vehicle repairs or a new vehicle due to tornado damage. They are also using funds to build numerous houses for tornado victims through the Homes and Hope for Kentucky organization.

The week following the devastating tornado, FNB established three accounts to benefit those who were impacted by the disaster. Two of the accounts were opened to benefit students and families of Mayfield Independent School and Graves County Schools who were impacted by the disaster and the corresponding funds for each account are controlled and dispersed by school employees. The general FNB Disaster Recovery Fund is still accepting donations and any funds received will continue to be given to non-profit organizations serving our local communities. Donations can be made online at FNB Bank Establishes Tornado Recovery Funds.

FNB Bank, founded in 1875, is one of the oldest banks in the state of Kentucky with assets exceeding 650 million.  FNB ranks among the highest in the nation in the area of safety and soundness. FNB is a 2021 and 2022 ‘Best Places to Work in Kentucky’ Small Business Category Award Winner.  The bank currently has nine locations located in Graves, McCracken, Calloway and Trigg County, with another office coming soon in 2022 in Marshall County.  FNB is member FDIC and an Equal Housing Lender.

FNB and ICBA Celebrate Community Banking Contributions

Written by Chelsea Culp on . Posted in Money Matters.

In recognition of Community Banking Month in April, FNB and the Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) are reminding consumers about why banking locally with a community bank matters.

“FNB is invested in our community’s success and works alongside our friends and neighbors to support our customers and help them plan for the unexpected, reach financial milestones, and establish a path to financial freedom,” said Sally Hopkins, FNB President & CEO. “I commend my fellow community bankers across the country for their efforts to enable millions of Americans to achieve their financial dreams and to uplift communities nationwide as relationship lenders and stewards of their communities.”

Community banks take in local deposits and redistribute them back into the community—consistently making more than 60 percent of small-business loans and more than 80 percent of agriculture loans. They also contribute tax dollars that help maintain local municipalities and keep local neighborhoods viable and strong because serving the best interests of their customers is fundamental to their business philosophy. Community banks:

  • Are highly favored by small businesses, earning a 74 percent net satisfaction score compared to 60 percent for large banks, 46 percent for finance companies and just 25 percent for online lenders, according to a Federal Reserve study.
  • Are committed lenders with loan growth that has outpaced noncommunity banks for eight years.
  • Demonstrate safety and soundness with higher capital ratios and better loan quality than the largest institutions.
  • Offer high-tech, high-touch service, giving consumers access to modern-day conveniences while maintaining the superior customer service for which community banks are known.
  • Have a strong track record in helping underserved Americans by focusing a relatively large share of their resources in low- and moderate-income tracts.

“During ICBA Community Banking Month we are proud to recognize community banks as financial first responders who continue to demonstrate their flexibility to address unique financial needs while performing acts of community service that create healthy, resilient and vibrant communities, which benefit Americans nationwide,” ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey said.

ICBA pays tribute to community banks for their ongoing contributions to their communities with ICBA’s annual National Community Bank Service Awards showcasing the unmatched role community banks serve by reinvesting their customers’ hard-earned dollars to support urban, suburban and rural communities throughout America.

ICBA and FNB Bank: Community Banks Create Stronger Communities

Written by Chelsea Culp on . Posted in Money Matters.

In honor of Community Banking Month in April, FNB Bank and the Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) are shining a spotlight on community bank efforts to create economic prosperity for Americans in urban, suburban, and rural communities nationwide.

“As a local small business ourselves, we are invested in building the prosperity of our customers, while enhancing the community we all call home,” said Sally Hopkins, FNB President & CEO. “FNB invites our local citizens to explore how we can help them throughout their financial journey as we work together to help them achieve their personal and business goals—all while keeping deposits local and boosting our local community.”

As financial first responders, community banks serve as pillars of support for their customers through good and challenging times. Collectively, community banks make more than 60 percent of small-business loans, more than 80 percent of agriculture loans, and contribute tax dollars that help maintain local municipalities. Community banks:

  • Are America’s most trusted lenders and have an 81 percent net satisfaction score compared to 68 percent for large banks and just 43 percent for online lenders, according to a Federal Reserve study.
  • Are committed lenders with loan growth that has outpaced noncommunity banks for nine years.
  • Demonstrate safety and soundness with higher capital ratios and better loan quality than the largest institutions.
  • Offer high-touch, high-tech service. This gives consumers access to modern-day conveniences while maintaining the high-quality customer service for which community banks are known.
  • Have a track record in helping underserved Americans by providing greater flexibility to low-income and minority borrowers.
  • Understand and embrace local small businesses. In fact, community banks made 60 percent of total Paycheck Protection Program loans to small businesses and provided 72 percent of PPP loans to minority business owners that reported such data.
  • Give back to their communities. Civic service is a way of life for community bankers as reflected in ICBA’s National Community Bank Service Awards.

“Community banks serve their customers with care and embrace their role as financial stewards because catering to the needs of their customers is intrinsic to their business philosophy and central to creating life-long relationships,” ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey said. “ICBA is honored to represent these civic-minded servants and to support their efforts to build better communities—one loan, one customer at a time.”

FNB Announces Marshall County Office Coming Soon

FNB Announces Marshall County Office Coming Soon

Written by Chelsea Culp on . Posted in Headlines.

FNB Bank (FNB) is proud to announce that the bank is expanding its footprint in western Kentucky by entering the Marshall County market.  FNB’s new Benton banking facility is projected to open in May 2022 and will be located at 315 W. 5th Street, Suite 700 in Benton, the previous home of Verizon Wireless.

“FNB has been serving customers in Marshall County through our existing branch network in neighboring counties,” stated Sally Hopkins, FNB President and CEO.  “We look forward to being more accessible to our customers with this new location and continuing to grow FNB in Marshall County.”

“We are excited to be opening in Marshall County,” added Trent Lovett, FNB Marshall County Market President.  “Our customer base in Marshall County has been steadily growing without a branch here, so it made perfect sense to expand and open our new Benton office.  We are looking forward to playing an active role in serving the community, while also serving new and existing customers with all of their banking needs.”

The new banking facility is FNB’s third concept branch, modeled after the bank’s Murray South and Paducah Midtown offices. The branch offers new modern aesthetics and banking amenities along with an image deposit-taking ATM.  All the while, the new office will still offer traditional banking services and delivery channels to appeal to all customer bases.  “Our new Benton office will feature a modern look and our ‘Start Something Today’ brand,” stated Hopkins.  “We are also proud to incorporate design elements that are exclusive to Marshall County as the focal theme utilized throughout the office.”

The grand opening of FNB’s new Benton Office is projected by the end of June 2022.  A ribbon cutting and grand opening event will be announced as plans are finalized.  To learn more about FNB, go to GrowWithFNB.com or contact Trent Lovett at (270) 387-3062 or by e-mail at trent.lovett@growwithfnb.com.

FNB Bank and ICBA Celebrate America’s Ag Community

Written by Chelsea Culp on . Posted in Headlines.

In recognition of National Ag Day, FNB Bank and the Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) are celebrating the contributions of America’s local farmers, ranchers, and agricultural enterprises.

“FNB recognizes the vital role that agriculture plays in the well-being of our local communities and country as a whole,” stated Lori Noel, FNB’s EVP/Chief Lending Officer.  “At FNB, we are committed to supporting our local farmers and the agricultural industry, as we all continue to preserve our nation’s natural resources for the betterment of society.”

Community banks provide 80% of all financing to and are often the catalysts for new and expanded business opportunities within their communities. In fact, community banks provide roughly $130 billion in agriculture loans.

National Ag Day was founded nearly 50 years ago to recognize the contributions of farmers in providing Americans with healthy, affordable, and abundant food options. ICBA offers the following facts about the agriculture industry:

  • The typical American farmer produces enough food and fiber to feed 166 people, producing jobs and investment throughout the economy.
  • Americans spend less than 10 percent of their disposable income on food, allowing consumers financial freedom to purchase other goods.
  • Farming and related industries employ 21.6 million people, making up 11 percent of total U.S. employment.

“Community banks have been serving the agricultural community for more than a century, applying their intrinsic knowledge of local markets and relationship-based lending philosophy to address this sector’s financial needs,” ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey said. “Our nation’s community bankers look forward to building on this rich tradition of service, which supports our nation’s food supply and bolsters our economy.”

FNB Donates $50,000 to Marshall County Schools

FNB Makes $50,000 Investment to Marshall County School Resource Officers

Written by Chelsea Culp on . Posted in Headlines.

With the recent change in how school resource officers (SRO) are funded in Marshall County, FNB Bank felt it was important to assist the school system with maintaining a high safety standard.  FNB is proud to help fund an indispensable program that helps protect the safety of students, teachers, staff, and beyond.  FNB is pledging to donate $50,000 over a three-year term to help fund the School Resource Officers at Marshall County Schools.  The initial donation consisted of $25,000 in 2021 to help give the program a boost in funding.  FNB will continue to pay the school system an additional $15,000 in 2022 and $10,000 in 2023 to help sustain the program, as the sheriff’s office and school system continue to seek additional funding resources for the program.

“FNB Bank applauds the Marshall County School District for funding a School Resource Officer in each of their nine schools,” stated Trent Lovett, FNB Business Banking Officer.  “With this donation spread over the next three years we are committed to help offset some of the cost and allow the MCSD to utilize funds that are normally set aside for SROs for educational purposes for Marshall County students.  We could think of no better cause for a donation than the safety of our students.  FNB Bank looks forward to a long-standing partnership with the Marshall County School District.”

The school system currently has 11 resource officers who are sworn sheriff’s deputies, who are paid in part by the sheriff’s department.  When the SROs are working on a school campus, the school district pays for their service.  FNB’s three-year commitment will assist the school system with funding to provide the level of SRO support necessary to maintain the high level of security needed for the schools.
