American Bank has contributed $250,000 to the Le Mars Area Betterment Foundation, the foundation and AmBank Company announced on Wednesday.
The donation was made as part of the Betterment Foundation’s campaign to raise $5.5 million to support enhanced parks and quality-of-life amenities in the community. The city of Le Mars has agreed to match that figure for a total of $11 million earmarked for improvements. American Bank’s contribution follows a $2 million donation made by Wells Enterprises in October.
In a press release, Micah Lang, president of American Bank, says that the bank was “proud to partner with the LABF and the City of Le Mars to help ensure our community continues to thrive for generations to come.” Foundation president Dustin Wright also stated that American Bank’s gift is an “essential investment in the future of our community.”
