Huron Valley State Bank
Supports Local Non-Profits
Huron Valley State Bank has a proud history of giving back to the community through sponsorship and donations.  Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, many of these programs are postponed or cancelled for an undetermined period of time. In April, the bank supported Meals on Wheels to provide food donations for pantry bags to the seniors.  In May, the bank supported Open Door Outreach Center with a direct donation.  Then June the bank gave a donation to Hospitality House. 

Most recently, Huron Valley State Bank donated $550 to Huron Valley Blessings in a Backpack to assist with adopting five children for the 2020-2021 school year. This will provide six meals each weekend during the entire school year to those five children who are part of the schools reduced or no cost lunch program.  A big check was presented at the Huron Valley Schools District Office.

SBA Paycheck Protection Program
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act allocated funds to help small businesses keep workers employed amid the pandemic and economic downturn. Known as the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), the initiative provides 100% federally guaranteed loans and forgiveness grants to small businesses. Huron Valley State Bank is an approved Small Business Administrative Lender and was able to provide these relief programs through the PPP to its business customers.

Phone Phishing Scams
Make A Comeback

With the wave of phishing scams using emails and texts (SMS) as weapons, hackers are finding the public is getting better at spotting them. In response, cybercriminals are now revisiting phone scams as a way of reaching the same end as their online counterparts: to steal as much PII (personally identifiable information), including financial data, as possible. Adding insult to injury, after a hacker cleans out a victim's accounts, they put the hijacked PII for sale on the Dark Web. In 2018, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) found phone phishing was one of the top three identity theft attacks. The other two were credit card fraud and employment or tax-related fraud.  Learn More
