Fidelity Bank has announced a gift of $100,000 to the Fulfilling the Promise campaign for construction of the McMichael Civic Center in Wentworth, a news release said.
Fidelity Bank CEO, Mike Whitley, says “We are happy to partner with the Fulfilling the Promise campaign. Our tag line of ‘Right By You’ extends not just to our customers, but also to the communities we serve.”
“This gift,” said Dr. Robert Keys, president of RCC, “represents a significant investment in the future of our county and reflects yet another strong commitment from the business community in this vital project that will benefit all Rockingham County citizens.”
This latest pledge of support brings the campaign total to just over $4.7 million.
The facility will be built on the RCC campus at N.C. 65 and County Home Road. The center will provide gallery and exhibition space for the arts and industry; flexible space for workshops, seminars, and meetings; affordable, quality office space for nonprofit organizations; and a performing arts center for cultural events to enrich community life, the release said.
