While its strategy encompasses all areas of community banking, it primarily focuses on building comprehensive business banking relationships and pursuing high levels of personal, relationship-based client services. The bank’s personal service, the hallmark of its community bank roots, is backed up by a robust technology offering for both businesses and individuals, including all the services generally expected from a much larger bank. In addition to banking Lake City Bank concentrates on building strong relationships with businesses and individuals, based on community banking principles. Home Bank allocates 10 percent of its profits to community projects through a gifting program. Home Bank, Martinsville Home Bank was chartered in 1890 as a mutual institution, essentially meaning that it is owned by its depositors. Without private ownership or stockholders, the bank’s profits are allocated entirely to its capital reserves, resulting in greater fiscal strength and resources for community support. Home Bank strives to lead by example in building a legacy of giving back to the communities it serves. In 2012 its board of directors created a gifting program, allocating 10 percent of the bank’s profits to support worthy projects addressing the greatest needs in the communities served. Through this program, Home Bank has challenged others in the community to think in like manner regarding giving back to the communities. Home Bank plans to continue this philosophy with the hopes of being able to make a greater impact in the years to come. t
