Buonaiuto of Empire National Bank honored

The Arthritis Foundation's Long Island chapter recently honored Empire National Bank's president Thomas Buonaiuto at its annual Golf Classic. Chair of the golf committee and Apollo Health Street regional vice president William Fontanetta said the organization is very grateful to Buonaiuto and Empire National Bank. "The bank's support of the Classic was instrumental to the success of the event. The organization will net close to $50,000. That's quite an impressive amount in today's financial climate." "Support of the Arthritis Foundation is a natural extension of the bank's commitment to give back to the communities it serves. Empire National Bank is proud to support groups that improve the quality of life for our fellow Long Islanders," said Buonaiuto.
