Blue Santa 2024

Southside Bank Hosts Internal Chili Cookoff to Raise Funds for Blue Santa

Every year, Southside Bank hosts an internal chili cookoff where team members purchase voting tickets, raffle tickets, or t-shirts to raise money for the local Blue Santa initiative. In 2024, Southside team members raised over $11,000!

Through Blue Santa, Tyler police officers assist kids by providing backpacks at the beginning of school, new coats during the winter and a large shopping spree every year for Christmas.
