COXSACKIE – The National Bank of Coxsackie (NBC) is proud to announce its recent $5,000 donation to the Columbia-Greene Humane Society (CGHS). The funds were made possible through the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York’s (FHLBNY) Small Business Recovery Grant Program, which allows member banks like NBC to support local organizations making a meaningful difference in their communities.

We are so very grateful for the Bank’s generosity to support our mission.”
