BROOKFIELD, Wis. – North Shore Bank announced today a donation of over $2,000 to the Pewaukee Predators Select Softball program, a volunteer-based girls select fast pitch softball organization. This donation comes from the proceeds of the community bank’s give-back metered parking system that was installed in 2022 at the North Shore Bank Pewaukee branch, located at 120 W. Wisconsin Ave.
The North Shore Bank Pewaukee parking lot transitioned from a privately-owned parking lot to the community-give-back parking system, with the goal of drawing visitors to downtown Pewaukee with accessible parking, while returning proceeds right back to the local community. The Pewaukee Predators, a youth sports program, were selected randomly by the bank to receive the funds. Last year, the Friends of the Parks of Pewaukee received the funds from the initiative to the Fourth of July fireworks.
“When we transitioned our parking lot to this model, our goal was to create a win-win-win opportunity for our Pewaukee community, which we’ve been lucky enough to serve for 29 years,” said Anne Kagerah, assistant vice president and Pewaukee branch manager for North Shore Bank. “We’re excited to be supporting the Pewaukee Predators whose goals include promoting ideals of community, integrity, responsibility, hard work, sportsmanship, and teamwork.”
The initiative aims to support local tourism activity, businesses, and residents with all parking proceeds reinvested in the Pewaukee area community through North Shore Bank’s Bank on Kindness® initiative. North Shore Bank customers always have free parking in the lot both during and after business hours.
