Giving back is part of who we are at Forte.

Earlier this week, we officially launched our annual United Way Corporate Campaign with a special visit from the United Way Of Washington County. Our President and CEO, Aaron Lensink, who serves on the United Way Board of Directors, shared how donations make a real difference for local families, children, and individuals facing life's unexpected challenges.

Every contribution stays local and helps strengthen the communities we serve.

We're proud to partner with United Way and support the programs and services that make Washington County a stronger place to live and work. Every gift makes a difference, and together we can create a lasting impact.

Join us for a fun way to support United Way of Washington County at the West Bend Power Hockey game on December 4 at 7:30 p.m. at the Ice Center. Forte will match donations to United Way's featured agency partner, NAMI of Washington County. Enter to win two Zamboni rides.

The stands were glowing at Hartford Homecoming this year! Each year, Forte Bank helps to hype up the school spirit at Homecoming, and this year was no different. Staff braved the rain to hand out orange and white glow sticks before the game. Unfortunately, Slinger defeated Hartford 33-0.

Stands were full. Glow sticks were glowing. School spirit was at a historic, all-time high. It was the final Homecoming showdown after 56 years of West Bend East Suns and West Bend West Spartans.

We had a blast handing out glow sticks to East Suns and West Spartans fans before Homecoming and seeing the stadium light up from kickoff to the final, End of an Era, Homecoming battle, which ended with a 49-7 victory for the West Spartans.

It was a great night to celebrate traditions, friendships, and community pride for these two unique community rivals.

It was a great way to close out an era.
