First Federal Bank, headquartered in Live Oak, Florida, provided a significant contribution of $100,000 to One More Child. The donation is part of the Strong Families Tax Credit program, enabling businesses to receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit up to a certain amount in support of select charitable organizations.
First Federal team members toured One More Child's Jacksonville campus last week, where they personally delivered the donation along with boxes of diapers provided by the bank's employees.
"We are incredibly grateful for First Federal's partnership," said Dr. Leon Battle, vice president of strategic partnerships at One More Child. "This generous donation will support our mission to permanently break the cycle of generational poverty and bring hope to those to who are hurting."
"At First Federal Bank, we are deeply committed to strengthening the communities we serve," said John Medina, President and CEO, of First Federal Bank. "We are excited to partner with One More Child as we positively impact the lives of so many children and families in need."
The Strong Families Tax Credit was established in 2021 to support eligible charitable organizations that provide services focused on child welfare and well-being. Operating in 26 states and 19 countries, One More Child serves foster children, hungry children, single moms, struggling families, and survivors of human trafficking.
Funding received through this tax credit enables One More Child to reach more vulnerable children and struggling families.
