More than 1,600 WSFS Bank associates recently volunteered at more than 130 community organizations across the region as part of the bank’s third annual We Stand for Service Day.
Associates volunteered more than 5,500 hours across the bank’s footprint in Delaware, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey during the company-wide day of giving back through volunteerism.
“At WSFS, We Stand for Service Day is a cornerstone of our commitment to the communities we serve,” said Justin Dunn, the bank’s Chief Community Impact Officer. “It’s a day where our associates come together to make a meaningful impact, volunteering at dozens of organizations to support causes close to our hearts. This day embodies our mission to strengthen our communities, and it’s a powerful reminder of the difference we can make when we work together. We’re proud to dedicate this time to giving back and living out our values in action.”
“We could not provide the over 300,000 packages of basic essentials for children without the dedicated and caring volunteers from corporations like WSFS who understand the importance of supporting the communities where they do business,” said Michal Smith, Executive Director of Cradles to Crayons Philadelphia.
“Volunteers are the heart and soul of our mission to eliminate hunger,” said Cathy Kanefsky, President and CEO of the Food Bank of Delaware. “We are deeply grateful to WSFS for their unwavering support, not just through financial contributions, but through the hands-on dedication of their associates. Days like We Stand for Service Day are a testament to the power of collective volunteerism, enabling us to distribute millions of pounds across Delaware.”
“WSFS Bank’s associates are making a major impact as we distribute up to 100,000 children’s books each month,” said Larry Abrams, Executive Director of BookSmiles. “Volunteers not only keep books out of landfills but open doors to learning and imagination for children and families across New Jersey and Philadelphia.”
