Donation requests for 2019 are now being accepted at Paducah Bank. Paducah Bank has a legacy of giving that spans more than 70 years, and being true to our name, we are Paducah’s Bank –striving each day to serve the people in our community.

“The bank moved to an annual donation process several years ago as a way to see all community needs at one time so that we can be more thoughtful in our giving  and more widely spread our donation dollars throughout the community,” said Susan Guess, senior vice president/marketing director at Paducah Bank.  “We are committed to supporting those organizations that are working so hard to improve our communities and to lend a hand to those in need.  We believe that we can be more than a bank. We can be a partner with our friends and neighbors who devote limitless time and effort to benefit others. And we will always want to be a part of that.”
