Bank of the Islands is proud to join the business partners of Community Housing & Resources as a Fir Sponsor for the CHR Festival of Trees. The event starts on Friday, Nov. 21, with a Community Day at the Sanibel Community House, followed by a Gala and Auction on Saturday, Nov. 22. A Business Holiday Decorating Contest rounds out the Festival of Trees community activities.
“This is such a fun way to kick off the holiday season while reminding all islanders of the irreplaceable role CHR plays in providing affordable housing for our community,” said Bank of the Islands President Robbie Roepstorff. “It’s our honor to join in supporting such a good cause. It’s a great way to show how much it means to us to be your island bank.”
