Family Life Center is thanking Midland States Bank for efforts to strengthen families through financial education.

Since 2020, Midland States Bank has provided a five-week financial education series for Family Life Center’s parenting clients. The goal is helping mothers and fathers gain the tools they need to make confident, informed financial decisions.

The financial series covers practical and foundational topics such as:
 Understanding what debt is
 Strategies to pay off debt
 Budgeting effectively
 Building emergency funds
 Staying out of debt and building long-term savings

To date, Midland States Bank has offered nearly 200 hours of volunteer help to Family Life Center clients. Their dedication has made a lasting impact on families striving to build a stable financial future.
