Penn Community Bank Foundation

Many banks talk about supporting their local communities. At Penn Community Bank, we actually are rooted in our community and committed to its growth. From our commitment to giving 5% of our net income back to the community through, to the way our employees actively volunteer at the ground level, we take our responsibility to grow and improve our community seriously.

The charitable giving mission of Penn Community Bank Foundation is to make an unparalleled contribution to the communities we serve, through both sustaining annual donations and innovative, impactful grants to key non-profit community organizations. We do this by making sustaining annual donations or impactful grants to selected nonprofits that share our commitment to helping build strong and resilient communities and promoting local economic development.

In line with the mission, the giving strategy focuses on developing our own programs, as well as strong partnerships with nonprofit organizations that share our commitment to helping build strong and resilient communities and promoting local economic development. The supporting categories of our partnerships include:

Community Enrichment

Creating safe, healthy, and thriving communities by supporting efforts such as increased access to health and wellness services, local beautification, culture and arts.

Local Business Growth

Contributing to the strength of the local economy by promoting sustainable practices, supporting area business communities, and encouraging entrepreneurship and job creation.

Economic Self-Sufficiency and Opportunity

Improving economic inclusion, access to food, affordable housing, and living-wage work for the unemployed and underemployed. In addition to giving and advocacy, the bank is uniquely positioned to support community members through financial education and empowerment.

Disaster Recovery and Emergency Services

Supporting first responders and demonstrating leadership during local disasters or emergencies such as public health crisis (e.g., COVID-19) or natural events (e.g., tornados, floods, etc.).
