Bank In Brookfield Offers Initiative To Support Veterans

BROOKFIELD, WI—A community give-back campaign will support honor flights for area veterans. North Shore Bank announced that Stars and Stripes Honor Flight located in Menomonee Falls and Old Glory Honor Flight will be the focus of the bank’s community give-back program, “Bank on Kindness,” which supports local efforts of the Wisconsin non-profit organizations, according to a news release.

The campaign kicked off on Nov. 1 and runs through Saturday.

The public can donate to the southeast and northeast Honor Flights through a community-focused website created by North Shore Bank.

The program’s online donation portal offers an easy way for people to donate to either or both of the non-profits.

North Shore Bank will match all donations up to $2,000 for each organization, the release said.

The Honor Flight organizations currently accept applications for WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and terminally ill veterans from other wars and are taking flight again.

The funds received during this campaign will give veterans in northeast and southeast Wisconsin the opportunity to join upcoming Honor Flight Missions in 2022, the release said.

To contribute to local Honor Flight organizations, the public can text “Kindness” to 77948 to receive a link to the website via text or visit the website.

Individuals do not need to be a North Shore Bank customer or Mastercard card holder to donate.
