FirstBank recently donated a supply of gift cards to two deserving organizations: the Boys & Girls Clubs and Department of Human Services’ Foster Care Unit. The 95 gift cards, valued at approximately $3600 total, were shared amongst the two groups and will be used to purchase Christmas Gifts for deserving children in the territory. The gift cards are like a prepaid credit card and can be used almost anywhere. Each group got 45 cards, and each card was valued at $40 at the time of distribution.
