Maitland, FL (PRWEB) May 24, 2016 -- Axiom Bank, a federally chartered community bank, donated $500 to the Orlando/Orange County COMPACT Program on May 20, 2016. COMPACT, an Orange County Public School Program, is an education and business partnership that challenges students to succeed and reach their maximum potential.
Axiom Bank’s cash donation was raised through the bank’s Dress‐Down Friday fundraising program, which asks bank employees to contribute $5 to charity in exchange for wearing jeans on Fridays.
“As part of the Central Florida community, we are pleased to help fund COMPACT,” said Ronald Strand-Sorrell, Axiom Bank COO. “Axiom Bank is proud to help create opportunities for the youth of Orange County to excel.”
Axiom Bank’s contribution will help fund COMPACT’s broad-based effort to reduce the dropout rate and assist at-risk students. Since its inception in 1989, COMPACT has served more than 12,000 students, and is active at 16 Orange County schools.
“We appreciate our corporate partners, like Axiom Bank, who help us support the aspirations of the students we serve, especially those who will be the first in their families to attend post-secondary education,” said Rocky Robinson, Executive Director of COMPACT. “These funds will help support the COMPACT scholarship program by directly enabling students to achieve their dreams.”
