‘Community Bank Cares’ program to give $100 to charity for customers

2 min read

Community Bank launched “Community Bank Cares,” a new program in which it will contribute $100 to the charity or church of choice for customers who take out a loan.

While the bank has always contributed to local charities and Community Bank employees participate in innumerable events and organizations, Chief Executive Pat McCune said the new program puts a personal touch on charitable giving.

While company-directed contributions are admirable, he said, the key to the new charitable initiative is that the customer makes the choice.

“We at Community Bank want to support our customers and we want to strengthen our communities, so what better way than to make charitable donations in honor of our customers,” McCune said. “Most people have a deep commitment to their church, or to help the less fortunate, or to protect animals. ‘Community Bank Cares’ allows the customer to direct support to help those they most care about.”

According to a news release from the bank, any type of loan taken out by any borrower qualifies, subject to a few simple limitations. The loan can be a mortgage, home equity loan, commercial loan, small business loan or personal loan. The loan must be made directly to the customer and must be for at least $20,000.

The bank will send the check to any eligible tax-exempt charity or church identified by the customer. The check will be issued by Community Bank and delivered in honor of the customer.

Community Bank is a locally owned and operated full-service commercial bank with 11 offices in Greene, Washington and Allegheny counties.
