Our foundational core value is “Show You Care” and we love to give back to the community through various philanthropic efforts, free client programs, and our CEO’s daily devotional which is open to the public. There’s no greater feeling, no greater satisfac- tion, than knowing you’re making a difference. But giving back to your community is also good for business. Philanthropy helps build relation- ships with clients and potential clients. It helps build and support your brand, and it promotes employee engagement. Building personal relationships. We have met some of our very best clients and supporters at philanthropic events. You never get involved for this reason, but it’s natural to develop friendships with like-minded people and you often end up doing business together. Building your community At Regent Bank, we believe in our community and the many, wonderful organizations that make our community so great.  Springfield is blessed to have a large number of philanthropic organiza- tions that work behind the scenes to fill the voids that are unfortunately found in most communities. From shelters to court advocates to providing the most basic of needs such as food and clothing, these philanthropic organizations work together to help those in need, which in turn makes our community strong.  Regent Bank is proud to support many of these organizations, and we are proud of our employees who volunteer at all levels within these organizations.  Our employees serve on multiple non-profit boards across Springfield, because we believe in what can be achieved when we all join together to help those in need within our community. Building employee engagement. We all want to make a difference, and we have found that philanthropy as a core value promotes employee engagement. It infuses passion in those around you. It gives employees more energy and drive. After all, who doesn’t want to be a part of something bigger? So, we encourage everyone reading this publi- ca-tion to find a way to give back- both with your money and your time. It is the ultimate win-win- win. You will feel great, your company will benefit and our community will benefit as well. 12 2019 GIVING GUIDE
