WOMEN IN COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP

Child’s Play Toys Turns to First Bank & Trust for Business Needs

Photos by Maggie Sweets Photography

Nancy Savage is the owner of Child’s Play Toys, a toy store with two locations – one in downtown Sioux Falls and the other in the Lake Lorraine development. Savage and her family moved away from Sioux Falls for 14 years before returning in 2009 when she first opened the downtown location. The Lake Lorraine location opened in 2019. For the last several years, Savage has worked with Melissa Fossell, vice president and business banker, at First Bank & Trust to help with all her business needs, a service that become critical when the COVID-19 pandemic began in 2020. Savage says the key to her business success has been the people she has surrounded herself with – from the fabulous Child’s Play Toys employees to Fossell at First Bank & Trust. “Surround yourself with good people who know more than you do,” Savage shared. “I couldn’t do this on my own.” Savage first met Fossell when Fossell was volunteering at a community event called Girls on the Run, which Savage’s daughter was participating in. Savage appreciates Fossell’s commitment to being involved in the community and says that’s the benefit of working with a local bank – they give back to the community. “First Bank & Trust cares about me – I’m not just a number,” Savage said. “During the pandemic, Melissa helped me feel safe and that she was there to support me.” Fossell has worked at First Bank & Trust for five years. Men predominantly dominate the commercial banking industry, but Fossell has been able to make an impact in the field. In 2021, Fossell was named Individual Lender of the Year at the Dakota BUSINESS Finance Annual Awards.

Fossell shares that when the pandemic began, there was so much uncertainty. They focused on cash flow needs and keeping an open dialogue as things unfolded. Fossell says Savage and Child’s Play Toys is a success story of a business that was able to thrive during COVID-19 because the community rallied around her. Child’s Play Toys even had their best Black Friday and Christmas this last year. “When the community thrives, we thrive. First Bank & Trust doesn’t exist without these businesses, like Child’s Play Toys,” Fossell said. Savage loves the relationship she has established with Fossell and First Bank & Trust and knows that for any questions she may have, Fossell is just a phone call away. “We’re a local business and they’re a local bank,” Savage said. “It’s important that we work together.” Learn more about First Bank & Trust by visiting bankeasy.com.
