“So many of our friends, family and communities were impacted by the fires that burned this year. As Nebraskans, we saw the support from local farmers, community first responders/firefighters as well as those from across the great state of Nebraska,” said Tim Sladek, Waypoint Bank Nebraska market president. “We sincerely thank and proudly support each person who went above and beyond to help their neighbors in need. This donation is a small token of gratitude for all the volunteer first responders in Eustis that answer the call to support their local community every day.”
