The Pujols Family Foundation and Eagle Bank and Trust are joining forces to
enhance the lives of families served by the foundation.
For the past four
years, the Pujols Family Foundation has provided support area families afflicted
by Down syndrome. The foundation hosts several social events throughout the year
including a Prom, bowling nights, scrapbooking nights and cooking classes to
provide hope and extraordinary experiences for families and children who live
with Down syndrome. The foundation also works to meet tangible needs for these
children and their families.
In the Dominican Republic, the Pujols Family
Foundation improves the standard of living and quality of life for impoverished
children in the Dominican Republic through education, medical relief and
tangible goods. Most recently, the Foundation distributed 51 beds throughout
villages in the Dominican Republic with a goal of giving 300 beds to the poorest
families.
To continue these incredible efforts, the foundation seeks
financial assistance from individuals and corporations. Eagle Bank has been a
member and supporter for three years and is introducing a new method local
businesses can assist the Pujols Family Foundation. This June, Eagle Bank will
introduce a business money market account with a rate equal to Albert’s batting
average. For example, if Albert is batting .337, the money market interest rate
is 3.37% Annual Percentage Yield. This is a very limited offer and requires
businesses to donate a minimum of $100 to the foundation. Eagle Bank will
also make monthly contributions to the foundation on the behalf of participating
businesses.
“We’re proud and excited to be working with the foundation,”
says Eagle Bank CEO, Michael Walsh, “their contributions to area Down syndrome
families and their work in the Dominican Republic are exemplary. This program
allows Eagle Bank to introduce local business leaders to the foundation which
only furthers the foundation’s efforts.”
