Lending a Hand at Friendship House

The Hughes Associates team had a blast this week volunteering at Friendship House. Together, the team packed 130 boxes of food for families during Thanksgiving, 30 bags of food for walk-in individuals, and raised $1,850 which will assist an additional 37 families!

Friendship House provides after school and seasonal programs for over 30 elementary students, a food pantry that serves over 100 households per week, refugee housing via the Refugee Resettlement Program, and much more.

Stay tuned… Next up is the Christmas Toy Drive!

Construction is moving right along for Bank of Botetourt’s new branch in Cave Spring.  Currently, the Cave Spring branch is located in Springwood Park next door to its new location.  However, the new branch will bring more exposure to traffic traveling along Electric Road and include a drive-through remote teller station.

The new branch is scheduled to be open by the end of May 2019.
