Ozarks Federal raises money for breast cancer research

Ozarks Federal recently presented $6,000 to the Susan G. Komen St. Louis Affiliate. Monies donated to the Susan G. Komen St. Louis Affiliate are used to help provide services to women in our local communities and to support breast cancer research.

Each October for the past nine years, Ozarks Federal has conducted an annual fundraising campaign for Breast Cancer Awareness. Employees at all five Ozarks Federal locations participate in fundraising activities including T-shirt sales, a food truck event, bake sales, raffles, silent auctions, and Blue Jean Days.

This year employees raised $4,500.00 of the total donation while Ozarks Federal contributed $1,500. Thanks to the generosity of the local communities, Ozarks Federal’s fundraising campaign continues to support Breast Cancer Awareness.

Ozarks Federal gives approximately $30,000 to various civic and nonprofit organizations in our local communities each year, in addition to its annual campaigns for Breast Cancer Awareness and the March of Dimes.
