Cynthia and Tom Olson


The High Plains Journal recently featured an article honoring Tom Olson of Lisco, Nebraska. 

Tom is chairman of banks in Nebraska, Colorado and Wyoming and is a life-long resident of Garden County. 

He and his wife Cynthia believe in giving back to their community.  As the article explains, one way they have given back is through a donor-advised fund with the Nebraska Community Foundation which they use to support HomeTown Competitiveness and community economic development efforts in Garden County. 

Read the article on the High Plains Journal Web site.
