Esther Short — Nearly 100 employees of Riverview Bank locations throughout Clark and Klickitat counties and Portland donated about 400 gifts to foster children through the bank’s Shirley DuPaul Gifts for Kids in Care program.
About 130 foster children benefited from the donations. This was the 30th year the bank has worked with the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services to help children in foster care.
“I am proud of the generosity of our Riverview family but not surprised,” said Pat Sheaffer, chairman and CEO. “Here at Riverview, our employees give in many different ways year-round. We are a community bank and a community-minded business.”
