Join Flat Branch as we build Gingerbread Homes to build stronger communities this holiday season.

This December, Flat Branch is focusing on what matters during the holidays – giving back to those in need. On our Facebook page this month, you will see decorated gingerbread homes representing charities in the communities we serve. Then it’s up to you! We’re asking for the public to vote for their favorite gingerbread house by December 30. The winning charity will receive a donation of $1,000. In the spirit of giving, all the other nominated charities will also receive a $250 donation.

Flat Branch employees have selected 8 charities that are near and dear to their hearts, and will be decorating gingerbread houses that represent each organization. Photos of these houses will be posted on Facebook for YOU to vote on. The winning house will receive a donation from Flat Branch Home Loans!
