The 2025 Trustmark Cares Annual Giving Campaign is in full swing, and associates throughout the country are making donations to 501(c)(3) nonprofits in the places where they live and work.

“This campaign is an important Trustmark tradition and a week I always look forward to,” said Kevin Slawin, CEO and President. “It’s a time when our caring culture truly shines.”

Some highlights of campaign week include:

  • Testimonials – Associates share stories about the nonprofit closest to their hearts. You can see why Jackie Zinkewich supports Lurie Children’s Hospital’s Chicago Institute for Fetal Health after watching this testimonial video.
  • Break to Educate – Rochelle Smith from Back On My Feet delivered an inspirational message about how this innovative nonprofit is trying to disrupt homelessness through the power of fitness.
  • Nonprofit Tables – A number of area nonprofits visited and shared information and materials with associates. Thank you to the Alzheimer's Association, Bernie's Book Bank, Fill a Heart 4 Kids, Keeping Families Covered and United Way of Lake County.
  • Volunteers in Action – Remote and Lake Forest associates participated; it included dad jokes and warm wishes, and the end results were Halloween snack bags for local schoolchildren.
  • Campaign Potpourri – A (friendly) competition between each Trustmark business unit and shared service (winning teams will get to donate to a nonprofit, courtesy of The Trustmark Foundation), online games, sweet treats, and more.
