Spotlight on Success: Commercial Bank of Texas

Spotlight on Success

Committed to the community… committed to saving lives!

Management, employee and customer support create the perfect formula for saving lives at Commercial Bank of Texas. A blood drive partner since 1998, the bank Commits for Life by sponsoring blood drives at its Nacogdoches facility at least once a quarter - every eight weeks, to be exact. Since its involvement began, the bank’s drives have collected more than 600 units of blood – saving as many as 1,800 lives.

“Our president, Mr. Thomas Ellison, is behind this service project 100 percent, and that certainly sets the tone for its success. Add to that, great employees and caring customers and you have the perfect combination for saving lives!” says blood drive chairperson Linda Gilcrease.

“Linda’s organization and passion for the blood drives is so important and much appreciated,” says Lynne Booker, blood drive recruiter for the Nacogdoches area, “She is always looking for new ways to recruit and recognize those who give of themselves, and that keeps the blood drives from becoming routine.”   

Thank you, Commerical Bank!  Area patients can bank on you to provide the life-saving blood products that help save lives.
