ST. JOSEPH — 1st Source Bank recently donated $100,000 in support of two private glass-enclosed meeting rooms that will be located within the newly designed and expanded Courtyard Café and an adjacent business lounge to be located on the second floor of the new Lakeland Medical Center Pavilion.

“With the increased demand for healthcare in our community, 1st Source Bank is pleased to make this contribution,” said Scott Geik, vice president of business banking. “Not only will the new space allow individuals and families to meet with their healthcare team in a private setting, but this donation demonstrates our commitment to the community.”

“Being in the hospital can be a stressful time for families who have a loved one staying with us. We also know how important it is for families to have space for self-care while they’re visiting the hospital,” said Brandi Smith-Gordon, the president of Lakeland Health Foundations. “We’re so grateful for this gift from the 1st Source Bank because it will provide private meeting spaces and a nearby business lounge where people can work, eat, meet with physicians, or comfort other family members at a critical time.”

To date, community members have donated more than $4.9 million in support of the pavilion, which is slated for completion in 2020.
