Busey Volunteerism

A huge thank you to the incredible St. Louis team for their outstanding volunteer work with Eye Thrive! From deep cleaning MVC2 to assembling 125 replacement boxes and restocking the Frame Board on MVC1, your dedication and efficiency made a real impact. Your support allowed the Operations Staff to focus on preparing for the busy school year ahead.

 

 

Creating change in our community one project at a time. Busey associates are encouraged to be actively involved, enriching the quality of life in the communities where they live and work. Being a community financial services organization means being a good corporate neighbor—partnering for purpose and progress.

Busey is proud to announce John Bramlette, SVP – Commercial Relationship Manager Team Lead, as our 2024 Volunteer of the Year. Living the Busey promise in his community, John completed over 361 hours of service in 2024.

John has a deep commitment to supporting local organizations and causes, demonstrating the true spirit of the Busey promise. He actively coaches a wide range of youth sports through the Naperville Park District, including softball, baseball, soccer, and basketball. His involvement goes beyond the playing field as he also serves on the board and finance committee with the Naperville Education Foundation for District 203 and has also served his term on the board and finance committee with HOME DuPage.

HOME DuPage empowers homeowners by offering financial education to help build equity and prepare families for homeownership. John is passionate about the positive impact this organization has on creating a stable future for local families. Additionally, the Naperville Education Foundation supports a variety of initiatives that benefit children in the district, including robotics programs, mental health services, scholarships, teacher grants, and programs that foster entrepreneurship. Thanks to John and his generous giving, these essential services continue to thrive and positively affect the community.

As the Volunteer of the Year, John will receive a $1,000 donation on behalf of Busey to present to an organization of his choosing along.

We would also like to congratulate Lexi Lagle, Commercial & Wealth Analyst, for being named this year’s Volunteer of the Year runner-up. For her service and dedication, Lexi will receive a $250 donation to a charity of her choice.
