May 2020 - Celebrating Everyday Heroes
Each month Community Bankers Association of Georgia (CBA) designs promotional items to help member banks celebrate different aspects of Community Banking! We offer themed promotional materials to use for your website and social media channels including banners, profile frames, square overlays, hashtags, quotes and facts.
This May, CBA is celebrating everyday heroes who continue to provide our public services during these hard times. The first full week of May is Public Service Recognition Week, celebrated from Sunday, May 3rd, until Saturday, May 9th, 2020. For the rest of May, CBA will continue celebrating our local heroes to recognize their brave efforts on the front lines for our public services.
During the month of May, we encourage you to celebrate those in the military & law enforcement, as well as first responders, healthcare workers, teachers, and postal workers. Also, don't forget those who work to support our public utilities, telecommunications, public transportation, sanitation, and more. Below are some basic facts, tips and resources that you can share with customers on your website or social media channels.

Quotes for Everyday Heroes:
“Each day, millions of government employees serve their fellow citizens, and we as a Nation recognize the valuable role they play in our communities. From the law enforcement officers and border patrol agents who keep our country safe and secure to those who work in education, healthcare, transportation, and other public service careers, civil servants ensure government works for the American people.”
– Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America, (2019)
“Every day, our Nation’s civil servants help make America better, safer, and stronger. This week, we honor their efforts and extend our gratitude for their exceptionalism and steadfast commitment to serving the American people.”
– Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America, (2018)
“In the face of difficult challenges, public servants give new life to the values that bind our Nation together. Civil servants are scientists and teachers, social workers and first responders — they are the leaders of today’s progress and the innovators of tomorrow’s breakthroughs. With determination and resolve, they defend our country overseas and work to widen the circle of opportunity and prosperity here at home. And despite tough circumstances — including pay freezes, budget cuts, sequestration, and a political climate that too often does not sufficiently value their work — these exceptional leaders continue to make real the fundamental truth that people who love their country can change it.”
– Barack Obama, President of the United States of America, (2015)
Quotes for Public Service Recognition Week:
“During Public Service Recognition Week, we express gratitude for our civil servants. Their daily effort keeps our Government functioning and helps make our Nation exceptional. Throughout my first 100 days, I have seen the tremendous work civil servants do to fulfill our duty to the American people. At all levels of government, our public servants put our country and our people first. The hard work of our mail carriers, teachers, firefighters, transit workers, and many more, creates an environment that allows individuals and companies to thrive.”
– Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America, (2017)
“During Public Service Recognition Week, we honor those who dedicate themselves to ensuring America’s promise rings true in every corner of our country, and we recommit to upholding the values they fight for every day.”
– Barack Obama, President of the United States of America, (2016)
