CHICAGO — Fifth Third Bank was recently honored by Illinois Governor Pat Quinn and the Serve Illinois Commission with the Illinois Governor's Volunteer Service Award. The awards recognize individual volunteers and volunteer programs through a statewide award program designed to highlight the importance of volunteerism and community service in the State of Illinois. The bank was nominated by the USO of Illinois.
Bank representatives were in attendance last week during a ceremony at the Executive Mansion in Springfield, Ill. to collect the award in the Business Category for Northeast Illinois. The Governor's Volunteer Service Awards focus on economic opportunity, education, environmental conservation, disaster preparedness and response and health and veterans affairs, across five service regions in Illinois.
