MARION, Ill. (KFVS) - Banterra Bank announced it has donated a total of $150,000 dollars to two Heartland organizations.
Banterra Bank donated $50,000 to Ferrell Hospital in Eldorado, Illinois to secure a naming rights agreement as part of the hospital’s new, completed 55,000-square-foot expansion.
Banterra will have the naming rights to the new public courtyard, located next to the new waiting room area.
Ferrell Hospital completed and opened the $34-million expansion in December 2020, and the addition more than doubles the hospital’s previous size of 33,000 square feet.

Area hospitals are getting their first shipments of COVID-19 vaccines this week.
The amount of vaccine varies by location, and only portion of the staff will receive vaccines to start. Chester Memorial Hospital expects to receive enough to vaccinate around half their staff.
Franklin Hospital will get enough to vaccinate about fifteen percent of their staff. CEO Jim Johnson said that’s deliberate.
“Because of the time requirement on it, we don’t want to overdo it, plus we aren’t sure what the side effects are going to be,” he said.
The Pfizer vaccine must be stored at minus 70 degrees Celsius. Once removed from that storage and delivered to hospitals, it has to be used within 5 days.
