We are grateful for Hills Bank's continued support of the Linn-Mar School Foundation.

Hills Bank's support extends beyond their annual partnership. Through programs like Classroom Cash, they create additional opportunities to give back to local students and schools. Recently, Hills Bank presented the Foundation with a $1,441.06 Classroom Cash donation, turning our community's everyday debit card purchases into meaningful investments for Linn-Mar students.

Community support makes our work possible, and we thank Hills Bank for their ongoing commitment to Linn-Mar schools. ❤️🖤
