The Company-wide day of giving back through volunteerism saw
approximately 1,500 Associates band together to volunteer more than
5,000 hours and make an impact at organizations across the
region.
“Our commitment to service goes beyond banking. Through
initiatives like We Stand for Service Day, we aim to make a
tangible and positive impact in the Communities we proudly call
home,” said Vernita Dorsey, Senior Vice President, Director of
Community Strategy at WSFS Bank. “We’re thankful to our dedicated
Associates and community partners, whose unwavering support make
impactful initiatives like this possible.”
WSFS (Nasdaq: WSFS) partnered with more than 130 community
organizations throughout the Bank’s footprint in Delaware,
Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
“In a world where food waste and food insecurity coexist,
Sharing Excess aims to revolutionize food sharing by solving the
logistical barriers of rescue and redistribution. We rely on
volunteers, such as WSFS Associates, to sort, glean and distribute
fresh nutritional food to our neighbors in need,” said Evan Ehlers,
Founder, Sharing Excess.
“All of us at HomeFront are incredibly grateful for the
dedicated volunteers from Bryn Mawr Trust, who have made a
significant impact on our families’ lives through their selfless
service at HomeFront's Resource Network. This includes their help
within our Choice Food Pantry, the Diaper Resource Center, our
FreeStore and Furnish the Future program. Their commitment and hard
work have enabled us to provide food, diapers, household items and
more to countless families in need. Together, we are making a real
difference and building a stronger community,” said Gina Davio,
Community Engagement Manager, HomeFront.
“With the hundreds who come to us daily and the thousands that
depend upon us for basic needs like food, shelter and clothing, we
need committed corporations like WSFS to provide the essential
volunteer efforts to do all the work. In the end, this work brings
hope for lives helped and turned around,” said Rev. Tom Laymon, Sr.
Pastor/President/CEO, Sunday Breakfast Mission.
Volunteer events were held in all three counties in Delaware at
organizations such as Sunday Breakfast Mission, Read Aloud Delaware
and Southern Delaware Therapeutic Riding; in Philadelphia, Bucks,
