Bank of the Islands donates to F.I.S.H.

Bank of the Islands recently made its latest non-profit donation through its “We Love Our Islands” program.  Island handyman and landscaper Taylor Maze was the lucky winner. Maze directed that the Bank’s $500 donation be given to F.I.S.H. of Sanibel-Captiva.

This donation marks $139,600 given away to date through Bank of the Islands’ “We Love Our Islands” program.

“F.I.S.H. provides essential social services, particularly for some of our year-round island neighbors,” said Bank of the Islands President Robbie Roepstorff. “If your own snowbird plans include closing your home down in the coming weeks and months, please consider donating dry goods for the F.I.S.H. food pantry. The pantry shelves can become quite bare in the summertime. Donations of non-perishable food items can be dropped off right in our bank lobby.”

To learn more about the life-affirming services and programs available through F.I.S.H., including ways you can support their year-round activities, please visit www.fishofsancap.org.

All islanders are invited to visit the Bank’s Sanibel or Captiva office to pick up a vehicle decal and learn more about the “We Love Our Islands” program and how you and your favorite charity can become our next lucky winners.

Bank of the Islands is located at 1699 Periwinkle Way, at the corner of Casa Ybel Road, on Sanibel. The Captiva office is at 14812 Captiva Drive, next to the Captiva Post Office.
