First Texas Bank had the opportunity to be involved in setting up a tea/water business for the Lampasas ISD Life Skills class.  The focus is to understand the finance side, communication skills, and responsibility for the students.

The Chronicle of Philanthropy

We are committed to positively impacting our communities and providing support to help them thrive.

Our philanthropy extends deep into each of our communities and the impact is created by OUR PEOPLE, both within First Texas Bank and the people of our communities coming together to make a powerful impact.

We are privileged to partner with wonderful organizations, helping to make a positive impact and providing yet another way for our employees to make a difference in the communities where we live and work. Our employees spend time volunteering in whatever capacity an organization of choice may need.  This can include being a board member and helping with fundraising events, to actual hands-on labor.

Look at our people making a difference:

First Texas Bank hosted a digital banking opportunity for any customers that wanted to participate.  The event was a great success and will continue to assist those wanting to learn about our online options.  Customer really enjoyed learning step by step how to bank remotely.

First Texas Bank understands the importance of making a positive influence in our community.

Here are some of our donation recipients: Boys & Girls Club, The Lampasas Lions Club, Lampasas Kiwanis Club, The Lampasas Quarterback Club, American Legion Boys State, American Legion Auxiliary Girls State, The Lampasas County Youth Livestock Show, The Lampasas Chamber of Commerce, Vision Lampasas, Lampasas Association for the Arts, Lampasas Spring Ho Festival, Christmas of the Creek, Lampasas FFA-Centex Classic, Lampasas Fire Dept. – Toy Drive, Lampasas Community Kitchen, Lampasas Community Gardens, Lampasas High School Golf, and Lampasas Badger Softball Association

First Texas Bank enjoys attending the dinner and auction for the winners of Lampasas County Livestock Show.  Here is one of our local kids that we are proud to support.  Their hard work and dedication to their project does not go unnoticed.

Building Badgers is a new program for our community.  The goal is to teach students different trade options as they go in to the workforce.  Money raised for this first event will be for material purchases to build a tiny house.  Upon completion, the tiny house will be for sale to recoup funds and start the next project.

The funds donated to Lampasas Community Garden are to assist with a garden shed and walkways that are handicapped-accessible

First Texas Bank hosted their first shred day for the community.  Being able to host an event to assist in fighting fraud is something that the bank really takes pride in.  The event was very successful and we are looking forward to another shred day in 2023.

First Texas Bank appreciates the hard work of LAFTA members.  LAFTA continues to bring great art to our community.
