Thank you to MBT Bank volunteers for participating in this year’s Day of Caring through United Way of North Central Iowa! The crew weeded and re-mulched plantings at our Mason City West residential treatment facility. This is MBT Bank’s second year helping beautify the West Campus. We are grateful for their continued support. At our Mason City East treatment facility—the former Indianhead Mansion—former Gerard employees gathered to paint the recreation room. In 2006, Four Oaks acquired Gerard Treatment Center. We are delighted these past staff members still feel connected to the ongoing work of serving children and families in North Central Iowa!
