Citizens First Bank, KROS Radio, Make-A-Wish and the Clinton High School basketball teams all partner to create the Swish for Make-A-Wish program in our community
Citizens First Bank has been the sponsor of the KROS Swish for Make-A-Wish program for over 20 years, donating to the Clinton County Make-A-Wish each time the Clinton High School River Kings and Queens make a three-point basket during the regular basketball season. This year, Citizens First Bank provided $500 to the organization to help wishes come true.
Barb Jacobsen, Chairperson of Clinton County Make-A-Wish stated, “We would like to thank Citizens First for all the support they have shown us over the years. Their support has helped us to grant many wishes to deserving families. We feel blessed to partner with Citizens First Bank “Swish for a Wish!”
Clinton County’s annual Make-A-Wish event is scheduled for Saturday, April 9, at the Vista Grande in Clinton. The theme is Black and White Help Our Kids Fight for this year’s sold-out event. For questions about how to get involved with the organization, contact Barb Jacobsen at 563-249-9016 or the state office at 1-800-797-9474.
