Operation Holiday Cheer
For the past eight years, Great Western Bank has participated in Bellevue’s Operation Holiday Cheer. The annual event brings together community members who collect donations and send them overseas to our soldiers.
Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update
The health, safety and well-being of our customers, employees and communities continues to be our top priority. Due to varying safety recommendations in the areas surrounding our branches, some locations are open to the public, while others remain open by appointment only. All drive-thru services and hours remain unaffected. Please use our Lobby Reopening Schedule to determine if an appointment is required before your visit. We will be updating the list regularly. Please avoid branch lobby visits if you are sick, have been exposed to the virus, or have traveled to a high-risk area.
Rest assured, we are deeply committed to being responsive to the needs of all of our customers. We appreciate your understanding during this time.
Great Western Bank’s WomenConnect
Categories:
Group finds quality time in volunteering.
In an effort to promote diversity and inclusion within its nine-state footprint, Great Western Bank sponsors several affinity groups including WomenConnect. The overall goal of WomenConnect is to increase visibility along with networking and leadership opportunities for all employees. Each state has its own chapter and focus.
The Nebraska WomenConnect group focused its visibility efforts on community outreach in December. Nine members visited City Impact in Lincoln, NE on December 9th for its annual program called Gifts of Love.
City Impact offers need-qualified families the opportunity to purchase new gifts at 70% off retail prices, thus helping maintain ownership and dignity. The families shop with a volunteer Shopper Assistant to find gifts within allotted budgets and are offered free gift wrapping. The WomenConnect volunteers had a variety of jobs from shoppers to gift wrappers and cashiers. The Nebraska group says it looks forward to volunteering next year for such a worthwhile project.
