<\/a><\/a>\nThe event created a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere where attendees danced, explored local vendor booths, and enjoyed food from businesses proudly operated by Black and women entrepreneurs.<\/p>
\n\u201cAt Republic Bank, Juneteenth is more than a holiday, it\u2019s an opportunity to actively support and celebrate the Black community through a day filled with fun and fellowship,\u201d said Logan Pichel, President and CEO of Republic Bank. \u201cWe are committed to creating and living a culture of inclusion. Through the work of our Business Resource Groups, including NIA, which hosts this event, we\u2019re proud to create spaces where connection drives progress and impact lasts beyond a single day.\u201d<\/p>
\nBeyond the energy of the day, the gathering provided an opportunity to expand access to vital health services. In partnership with organizations including the American Heart Association, Kentucky African Americans Against Cancer (KAAAC), KARE Mobile, Donate Life Kentucky, and the Kentucky Health Organization, Republic offered free prostate, oral health, kidney function, and blood pressure screenings.<\/p>
\nThis work comes at a time when many Americans are falling behind on preventative care. According to the 2025 Aflac Wellness Matters Survey<\/b><\/a>, 90% of Americans have delayed or avoided preventive care appointments that could identify serious illness. Routine screenings and annual wellness visits remain essential for early detection and effective management of chronic conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and cancer. Without consistent preventive care, delayed diagnoses can lead to more complex treatment plans, higher costs, and poorer health outcomes.<\/p> \n\u201cCelebrating Juneteenth as a Bank year after year is incredibly meaningful to us,\u201d said Kenya Lacy, Associate Vice President, Inclusion and Diversity. \u201cMoments like this allow us to connect more deeply with the community while helping extend critical resources to those who need them most.\u201d<\/p> \nThrough efforts like this, Republic continues to turn its commitment into action. It creates spaces that not only bring people together but also help communities move forward and thrive.<\/p> \nAbout Republic Bank<\/b><\/p> \nRepublic Bancorp, Inc.
