CANFIELD -- As part of a community-wide effort, Farmers National Bank is working to prevent the No. 1 killer of women: Heart Disease.
Together alongside customers, the bank donated more than $8,000 to the local American Heart Association (AHA). That money will fund lifesaving cardiovascular research, advocate for heart-healthier communities, and spread awareness of heart attack/stroke.
The director of marketing at Farmers, Julianna Begalla, was a 2024 AHA Woman of Impact nominee. She spearheaded the bank's fundraising efforts.
"Every dollar we raised in this campaign will go right back into our community to save our neighbors and help them live a longer, healthier life," Begalla said. "I am beyond grateful to Farmers and to our customers for supporting my Woman of Impact campaign. This is truly community banking at its best and I am proud to be even just a small part of that."
In addition to providing a corporate sponsorship, the bank raised more than $5,500 in February through staff donations and by selling paper hearts to customers in branches. To learn more about Farmers, visit farmersbankgroup.com.
