of the River Cities
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — Fifth Third Bank recently helped United Way of the River Cities make an
impact in the community.
Fifth Third Bank recently made a generous contribution to United Way of the River Cities’ annual
fundraising effort. This contribution helps the organization move closer to its $1.25 million goal,
