St. Bernards Foundation receives a $5,000 donation from the Arvest Foundation

Jonesboro, Arkansas – A $5,000 contribution to St. Bernards Development Foundation was announced by the Arvest Foundation on Tuesday as part of a Giving Tuesday match challenge.

Through St. Bernards Healthcare, which offers health, education, and treatment services in Jonesboro and the surrounding areas, the money will be utilized to assist a number of programs.

Kevin Hufstedler, president of Arvest Community Bank, recently presented the cheque to St.
Bernards members on behalf of the Arvest Foundation, accompanied by Arvest workers.

“We are delighted to proudly support the St. Bernards Foundation’s Giving Tuesday initiatives with this $5,000 grant,” Hufstedler remarked. “Their vital work in our community will be amplified by this match.”

People are encouraged to give back to their communities by contributing their time and money to charity causes by participating in Giving Tuesday, which is observed on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving.

Lydia Parkey, president of the St. Bernards Foundation, stated, “The Arvest Foundation’s generous grant supports our Giving Tuesday efforts, and for that, we are extremely grateful.” Our Christ-like healing mission is furthered by this amazing donation, which makes it possible for us to carry out important projects that show compassion and care. In order to increase the impact of giving in our community, we hope that their kindness will encourage others to match their efforts.
