Bank of Botetourt is pleased to announce a new initiative “Casual for a Cause” where employees will dress down and donate to a charity.

The charities include St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital, Carilion Children’s Hospital, American Red Cross, Autism Speaks, Juvenile Diabetes, SPCA, New Freedom Farm, American Cancer Society, North Botetourt Community Garden & Feeding America, Angels of Assisi, End Alzheimer’s, Rockbridge Area Hospice, American Heart Association, Roanoke Rescue Mission and League for Animal Protection and Cats Unlimited.
The inaugural Casual for a Cause kicked off on Friday, Nov. 3, raising over $300 which benefited St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital and Carilion Children’s Hospital.
