The spirit of giving has been a key element in Caldwell Trust Company's corporate culture since its founding twenty years ago. Now several organizations have made their gratitude official with formal honors and awards. We are humbled to be part of this community and be recognized. My father always taught us that it's important to give back, and since the day we were formed, we've always been following that model. We couldn't do it without great staff. All of them are very, very active in the community and is certainly a part of our success.
