Penn Community Bank is partnering with Summit Technology Group to “adopt” a dozen local families this holiday season as part of its annual Adopt-a-Family program. Team members from both organizations gathered recently to purchase over $10,000 in gifts and holiday essentials for those in need across the region.
“Perhaps no time of year highlights the strength of communities more than the holidays. As a community-first financial institution, we’re inspired by the generosity of our neighbors and always eager to lend a hand,” said Charles Field, chief financial officer, Penn Community Bank. “We’re grateful for the professional and charitable partnership with Summit Technology Group that made this program possible.”
“From the start of our relationship, it was clear Penn Community Bank was committed to serving the greater good. We’re thrilled to partner with another values-driven business to brighten the holiday season for families in need,” said Benjamin Wallace, Summit Technology Group.
Penn Community Bank and Summit Technology Group began their business partnership in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic when STG helped establish state-of-the-art technology for the bank as it administered the Paycheck Protection Program. Thanks in part to these tools, Penn Community Bank was able to assist hundreds of local businesses, saving thousands of jobs across the region.
