Guidelines for Corporate Volunteerism Requests

We welcome requests for volunteer initiatives. All requests must be made in writing. Provident Bank will normally consider one request per year from organizations classified as IRS 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit, located in areas where we have significant business interests. Special consideration is given to organizations in which Provident employees are actively involved. It is important that organizations demonstrate a broad base of community support as well as support from other local corporations and foundations.
