PANAMA CITY, Fla. - Today, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Jimmy Patronis and his wife, Katie Patronis, joined members of the St. Andrew Baptist Church Center of Hope in Panama City to drop off canned goods, take a tour of their facility and encourage Floridians to give back this holiday season.

CFO Jimmy Patronis said, “Christmas is one of the best times of the year to spend quality time with friends and family over a nice meal at the dinner table. It is also a great time to give back to those in less fortunate situations. With record high inflation and challenging fuel prices, people are in need and this is one great way to give back. It was an honor to visit St. Andrew Baptist Church Center of Hope this morning with my wife Katie, and a huge thank you to them for sponsoring just one of the countless food drives across the state of Florida and giving back to the Panama City community. It’s amazing that this center is 100 percent volunteer based and I’m so thankful that they choose to donate their time to the people who need it most. I am encouraging every Floridian to find a way to give back to your community this holiday season.”
