Since 2007, we have offered our Report Card Debit Card Rewards Program as a way to support local schools. This year, the grand total donated to all schools reached $499,302.58. The donation for 2024 totaled $76,046.92. The Report Card Program allows debit card customers to support one of 15 local schools. With every swipe of a Marion County Bank debit card, the bank makes a donation to the school of choice. The more swipes, the more we donate and the more schools earn!

“As our local school districts have grown over the last few years with additional buildings and programs, we continue to partner with our customers to support this growth with our Report Card Program,” said Steve Kraayenbrink, President and CEO.

Along with the donation checks, each school building in Pella, Pella Christian, Knoxville and Melcher-Dallas school systems received a Report Card Program cake to celebrate the annual donation and show appreciation to the teachers and staff as they prepare to start the 2024-2025 school year. 

Enrollment in Marion County Bank’s Report Card is free and there is no limit to the money a school can earn! Read more details and sign up on our Community Support page, or stop in one of our locations in Pella, Knoxville, or Melcher-Dallas.
