PARTICIPATE IN THE FIRSTRUST AFFINITY PROGRAM
Bank with Firstrust and make money for Spells without spending a dollar of your own. The bank’s Affinity Program puts the hard earned money of its customers to work for a good cause.
It’s easy:
- contact the bank;
- tell them you’d like to support Spells Writing Center through the Affinity Program, and they’ll assign your name to the bank;
- at the end of the year, the bank reviews the balances of all accounts supporting us and makes a donation to Spells based on a percentage of the average balance of all those accounts.
Too busy? If you already bank at Firstrust, we’re happy to contact the bank on your behalf. Give us the name on the account (no, we don’t need your account number!), and we’ll set it up for you.
