At the concession stand. At your favorite coffee shop. At the gas station.

Wherever you choose to spend, our innovative Community Card program turns your everyday purchases into support for local schools.

If you want to join us in making your money matter, here’s what you need to know:

Our Community Cards have provided local schools with thousands of dollars.

Since 2012, we’ve given back more than $370,000 to local schools.

We have 15 schools on our roster, covering all of Sioux Falls and many of the surrounding towns.

The Brandon Valley School District remains our top earner with more than $100,000 through the program.

They’ve made a difference in the lives of students, teachers, and parents.

Thanks to our Community Card program, local schools have been able to do things like:

  • Provide books for a summer reading program
  • Give every student a free spirit t-shirt
  • Support their athletics programs
  • And so much more!

It’s easy to add a Community Card to your wallet.

If you have a checking account with us, then you’re ready to go. (If you don’t have one yet, find yours here!)

Next, call up your banker or stop by one of our convenient locations to ask for a Community Card.

Once you have your card and are ready to spend, simply choose the “credit” option for each purchase. We’ll donate a portion of the purchase amount to the school on your card.

Together, we make your money matter.

Whether you’re a Sioux Falls Lincoln Patriot, a West Central Trojan, a Flandreau Flier, or a fan of another Community Card school, you can make a difference for local students.

Watch the short video below to learn more about our commitment to community, and let us know when you’re ready for your new card.

I look forward to attending the annual Prairie Family Business Conference every year. This year, one of the speakers talked about how he had recently sold his family business. Upon being asked if any of his children had expressed interest in coming to work there, he lamented that they had not. He went on to

“I’m a golfer, so there’s a lot of focus on golf that comes around the process and not worrying about the results. And if you continue to stick to that process…then, ultimately, the results come. I think investing is very similar.” With ripple effects from recent tariff policies, the thought of investing in today’s stock
