Community Involvement
Rooted in Community. Driven by Care.
At First Security Bank, caring for our community isn't something we check off a list. It's part of who we are. Our team members live here, raise their families here, and show up for the same schools, organizations, and events that make this community special. That's why supporting Byron and the surrounding areas means so much to us.
Throughout the year, we're proud to give our time, resources, and energy to local schools, nonprofits, or partnering with organizations that serve local families, we're committed to helping our community continue to grow and thrive.
Byron Community Food Pantry
We keep a donation bin in the entry to our lobby for any food pantry donations. In the beginning of 2026, our team held a donation drive for the items needed most by the pantry. We then delivered all items and spent time volunteering, helping to organize and clean their new expanded space.
Byron Impact Fund
Beginning in 2016, we began awarding the Byron School District "Impact Fund," an annual donation to use for implementation within the Byron School District. This donation helps to avoid programs being cut and to cover the cost for necessary items that would impact many students for years to come.
Holiday Giving Tree
Each year, during the December Holiday season, FSB sets up a tree in which local community members are given the chance to "adopt" a local family or individual and provide gifts or items they would otherwise not be able to receive.
First Security Bank Scholarship Program
We have helped students reach their goal of higher education by awarding over $200,000 in scholarships to more than 100 area students.
Ronald McDonald House of Rochester
Annually, FSB hosts a "collection drive" where we collect necessary items for the Ronald McDonald House in Rochester. We then serve a dinner to the families there.
Make-A-Wish of Minnesota
We have sponsored and supported Make-A-Wish of MN children and their families. This organization grants wishes to MN children with life threatening illnesses.
BrrrFest Celebration
FSB hosts a party for BrrrFest Celebration in Byron where we provide snacks and complimentary face painting for the community.
Operation Kindness Drop-off Location
FSB is a registered Operation Kindness drop off location. This is for people to drop off their leftover Halloween candy and we mail it to the troops serving overseas.
