November 7, 2022 FirstBank is celebrating its 10-year anniversary in the Roaring Fork Valley. We opened our first location in the valley in 2012 and have since grown to four branches, including locations in Carbondale, Glenwood Springs, Aspen, and, most recently, Basalt. In honor of this milestone, our Roaring Fork Valley branches will host a series of feel-good activities and events to “surprise and delight” residents. From pet adoptions and complimentary breakfasts to wish list fulfillment for Roaring Fork Valley teachers, there will be something for everyone. To kick off the celebration, local branches will display a mural inviting community members to suggest acts of kindness to their friends and neighbors. Over the next few months, the bank will collect acts of goodness to help spread the “banking for good” philosophy throughout the community. Find your fur-ever friend at FirstBank In December, we partnered with Eagle County Animal Services to host a pet adoption event at our Glenwood Springs branch. Several people stopped by to meet some adorable, adoptable animals. Give Where You Live As a way to give back to the Roaring Fork Valley, FirstBank invited its residents to vote for their favorite Colorado Gives Day nonprofit categories for a collective $1,000 donation. From Glenwood Springs and Carbondale to Basalt and Aspen, nonprofits help make our community a wonderful place to live, work, and play. With a resounding 49 votes for the animal-related organizations category, we have donated $250 to each nonprofit listed below.
