MidFirst Bank Celebrates Employee Volunteerism and Community Impact with Community Connection Event
OKLAHOMA CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MidFirst Bank, the nation’s largest family-owned bank, held its Community Connection Event on Tuesday, April 21, 2026 at its Oklahoma City campus. The event connected MidFirst employees with local nonprofit organizations, celebrating the Bank’s commitment to giving back to the communities it serves and creating lasting community impact.
The event featured ten nonprofit organizations across MidFirst Bank’s five giving pillars: education and family services, health and research, arts and culture, environmental stewardship, and economic development. Employees learned the many ways these organizations are impacting the community and the volunteer opportunities they offer to get involved and make a difference. Participating organizations included the American Red Cross, Arts Council OKC, Boys & Girls Club of OKC, City Rescue, Infant Crisis Center, OKC Beautiful, Oklahoma Council for Economic Education (OCEE), Pivot, Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma and United Way.
The event also featured a Financial Education table hosted by Emily Schwartz, MidFirst Bank's Director of Financial Education, in partnership with the OCEE. MidFirst Bank has partnered with many of the participating organizations for years, including an 18-year partnership with Infant Crisis Services. These longstanding relationships demonstrate MidFirst Bank’s sustained commitment to strengthening the communities it serves.
“At MidFirst Bank, giving back isn’t just something we do. It’s who we are,” said Todd Dobson, Chief Executive Officer of MidFirst Bank. “Year after year, our team members show up for the community with remarkable generosity, volunteering thousands of hours to strengthen the communities where we live and work. The Community Connection Event is a celebration of that spirit and a reminder that the impact our employees make beyond our walls is equally as important as the work they do inside them. We are proud to foster a culture where service is encouraged, and we look forward to seeing that commitment grow.”
MidFirst gives each full-time employee paid volunteer time annually, supplemented by a robust calendar of company-organized volunteer opportunities. MidFirst employees’ volunteer hours across the country are a testament to the Bank’s dedication to community engagement.
