The Thomaston Savings Bank Foundation has once again implemented its Act to Impact Employee Giving Campaign. This initiative was developed to allow Bank employees to give back to the communities the Bank serves by deciding how to distribute $31,500 in Foundation grants. The employees were divided into 21 teams giving each team the opportunity to award a $1,500 onetime grant to an area non-profit aiding the community in basic human needs, crisis intervention, health and human services, food security and homeless and housing security.
“I am proud of the Bank’s employees for coming together and thoughtfully selecting their grant recipients. This year has been a challenge for so many. The focus on basic human needs and community have really stirred all of us to award grants which will make a meaningful difference in the neighborhoods where we live and work. This year’s campaign truly gave meaning to the initiative’s moniker, Act to Impact.” – Cheryl Lindstrom, Thomaston Savings Bank, Community Outreach Officer
Thomaston Savings Bank is proud of its well-established Foundation and is happy to contribute to local organization’s charitable causes.
“We are thrilled to once again offer our employees the opportunity to award grants to the organizations of their choosing and are proud of their thoughtful selections. Our employees actively volunteer their time and resources within the areas we serve and truly have a pulse on our community. They work within their teams to pick organizations that make meaningful contributions to the lives of those who need our help the most.” – Stephen L. Lewis, Thomaston Savings Bank, President and CEO
