RALEIGH, NC . . . North State Bank’s Summer Salute for Transitions LifeCare raised $135,000, bringing the event’s lifetime donation to more than $2.5 million. This year’s event marked the 22nd annual Summer Salute, which raises funds through sponsorships, ticket sales, raffles, live and silent auctions, and donations. These funds provide financial support to ensure every individual who needs hospice and palliative care receives quality care and support when facing a serious illness or at the end of life. 

North State Bank Chief Executive Officer Larry D. Barbour shared, “Summer Salute began as an idea over 22 years ago. We knew we wanted to create an enduring partnership with a nonprofit that, like North State Bank, is committed to the community for the long haul. We could not have found a better partner than Transitions LifeCare. They support people during one of life’s hardest moments, and they do it with compassion and humility. We are pleased to surpass the $2.5 million milestone and look forward to growing that donation for years to come.” 

“The passion and energy invested in Summer Salute by the North State Bank team is palpable,” commented Dr. Adam Wolk, Chief Executive Officer of Transitions LifeCare. “To have a company headquartered right here in Raleigh that makes the choice year after year to steadfastly support our mission means so much. These funds are more than figures on paper; they allow us to reach individuals and families who could not otherwise afford palliative and hospice services. Every dollar makes a difference. Many thanks to North State Bank.” 

Planning is already underway for another memorable evening of fun, celebration, and fundraising on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at Raleigh’s North Ridge Country Club.
