The Ericka Carter for Mike Carter fund


A fund has been established at BanCorp South for the Carter family. It was set up to help offset some of the many unseen medical and out-of-pocket expenses that are bound to arise from this situation.

The press release has been sent out to all of the local media outlets: radio, tv, newspaper, magazine. In addition, it has been sent to many East Texas, Minden/Ruston/Natchitoches, and Toledo Bend area media affiliates.
