Nevada Bank and Trust is putting on a supply drive for Lincoln County Schools. 

“With COVID-19 affecting many people within our communities, we thought with the local schools starting soon, and with all the new changes, many children will be struggling with school supplies,” Caliente Branch Manager September Barnes said. “Nevada Bank and Trust is helping in making sure that children can focus on their education in this ever-changing world we are currently in, instead of worrying about if they will have supplies for school.”
