The Illinois Bankers Association has presented the Illinois Bank Financial Literacy award to First Eagle Bank in Chicago. The award honors the bank for a number of initiatives that provide critical training and key resources to its community. First Eagle Bank has partnered with the IBA's EverFi program to sponsor two elementary schools in Hanover Park. Through EverFi, First Eagle provides free online financial literacy training that has reached more than 750 students since 2013. The bank has also presented financial literacy education to residents of Deborah's Place, a Chicago organization that opens doors for homeless women.
