S2E3 Mary Blankenship Pointer

Her roots in philanthropy and community support go back 100 years. Mary Blankenship Pointer was destined for a career in banking when her grandfather put a hundred-dollar bill into her infant hand. In her first banking job after college, Liberty Bank offered greatly discounted season tickets to employees from their sponsorships of cultural events. That led to a lifetime of supporting local arts organizations and other worthy causes. Now heading the Red Andrews Christmas Dinner, Mary tells the story of its origin and shows why she exemplifies the label of Community Volunteer.Post-production by Fred O.
