Nearly 1,200 WSFS Bank associates volunteered across the Greater Philadelphia and Delaware region on June 14 as part of the bank’s first-ever “We Stand for Service Day.”

This company-wide day of giving back through volunteerism saw approximately 1,200 associates join together to volunteer nearly 5,000 hours and make an impact at organizations across the region.

“WSFS is a community bank with deep roots in the Greater Philadelphia and Delaware region,” said Vernita Dorsey, Senior Vice President, Director of Community Strategy at WSFS Bank. “’We Stand for Service Day’ is one step toward our vision of a day when everyone will thrive. It is an ambitious goal, but days like these get us closer to achieving it.”

WSFS partnered with more than 80 community organizations throughout the bank’s footprint in Delaware, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey.

Volunteer events were held in Philadelphia, Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties at organizations like Cradles to Crayons, the Chester County Food Bank, and Habitat for Humanity of Bucks County; in all three counties in Delaware at organizations such as the Delaware Center for Horticulture and Humane Animal Partners; and in Burlington and Camden counties in New Jersey at organizations including Cathedral Kitchen and the Animal Welfare Association.

WSFS Bank’s efforts in its communities continued throughout the week, as it supported the University of Delaware Athletics’ inaugural 302 Tour by teaming up with UD students and Reach Riverside to clean streets in Wilmington; volunteered with members of the Philadelphia Union’s staff on service projects in Chester; and closed out the week honoring its mission of “We Stand For Service” by having the WSFS CARES Foundation ring Nasdaq’s opening bell on June 16.
