We Care so We Give
First Community is inspired by the communities we serve and recognize our roots in school districts, giving us a heart for education. This commitment has grown and transformed into the First Community Cares Foundation. Giving back to benefit and engage our communities is how we demonstrate this care.
The First Community Cares Foundation is pleased to provide scholarships to deserving high school graduates to assist with their college/university education. In addition to our ongoing support of school districts, we make donations upon request to local and national causes. Explore how we can support students and community efforts through these great programs.
