Presidential Bank was honored for its community service at the 2nd Annual Pull Tabs for Charity Luncheon on May 14, 2009, with special recognition conveyed to John McGuire, Branch Manager of the Bethesda office. Accepting on behalf of Presidential were Haila Cleaver, Vice President of Operations, and Mr. McGuire.

Presidential began its work with Pull Tabs for Charity in honor of a customer who lost an adult child to cancer. Pull Tabs for Charity provides direct financial support to the National Cancer Institute and Ronald McDonald House Charities through its alliance with the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries. Pull Tabs for Charity collects pull tabs from cans throughout the United States, deposits them for recycling, and directs all proceeds to the charities. Over the past several months, Presidential branch offices served as collection points on behalf of Pull Tabs for Charity. Many customers and non-customers alike deposited thousands of pull tabs, making Presidential’s participation a great success.
