With the start of a new school year, Marquette Bank recently celebrated with two separate initiatives to support local schools and education organizations. Marquette Bank announced their eighth annual Adopt-a-Classroom prize drawing. The drawing will wrap up on Saturday, Sept. 10th. Marquette Bank customers, teachers and parents can enter at any bank location for a chance to win a $200 gift card for any elementary, junior high or high school classroom in Illinois. Additionally, their annual Neighborhood School Supplies Drive wrapped up, benefitting local students, neighborhood schools and organizations in need of supplies for the new school year. Both initiatives are part of the Marquette Neighborhood Commitment to support education. Each quarter, the bank focuses on a different area of need, including shelter, hunger, education and health/wellness.
