Paul Scully says much of Country Bank’s philanthropy in 2020 was directed at “COVID-related initiatives.”
Paul Scully says local philanthropy is baked into the DNA of this region’s financial institutions.
“Banks have always been great about supporting communities. And we are fairly philanthropic,” Country Bank’s president and CEO added, noting that the bank gave $1.3 million to local nonprofits last year, touching about 400 different organizations in some way.
Those numbers aren’t atypical. What made 2020 slightly different is where that money went.
“Of that, about a half-million went to what I would call COVID-related initiatives,” Scully said, citing causes ranging from equipping frontline workers at hospitals to meeting soaring demand at local food banks due to the pandemic’s economic impact on families.
