Supporting Angels Among Us: Making a Difference Together

At First Westroads Bank, we are committed to giving back to the communities we serve. This year, we proudly partnered with Angels Among Us, an Omaha-based 501(c)(3) charity that supports families battling pediatric cancer in Nebraska. Since its founding, Angels Among Us has provided critical financial and emotional resources to over 440 families, helping them navigate one of the most challenging times in their lives.

About Angels Among Us

Angels Among Us focuses on alleviating the financial burdens faced by families with children undergoing cancer treatment. Their assistance spans a wide range of needs, including:

  • Rent and mortgage payments
  • Auto expenses
  • Cell phone and utility bills
  • Credit card payments
  • Prescriptions and medical bills

By providing this support, Angels Among Us ensures that families can focus on what truly matters: their child’s health and well-being. With our collective efforts, we aim to help them expand their reach and assist even more families in 2025.

Our 2024 Fundraising Efforts

In 2024, we introduced an exciting initiative to rally our team in support of this cause. Every month, we organized a "Last Friday of the Month Jeans Day," where employees could donate $40 for the year or $5 monthly to enjoy a casual workday. This fun and engaging effort raised $645 for Angels Among Us. Additionally, many of our employees went above and beyond by donating wish list items and contributing extra funds.

Looking Ahead

The impact of Angels Among Us is profound, and we’re honored to contribute to their mission. Together, we’re making a meaningful difference in the lives of families who need it most. As we look to the future, we’re excited to explore new opportunities to support Angels Among Us and other community-focused initiatives.

We’re incredibly proud of our team’s generosity and commitment to this cause. To learn more about Angels Among Us or how you can help, visit their website at myangelsamongus.org

Together, we can continue to uplift and empower families in our community. Thank you to all our employees and customers who made this effort a success!
