Our Commitment to Our Communities
At Severn Savings Bank, we’re more than just bankers, we’re bankers who care! We care about our communities and the people who live and work in them. We understand that giving back can make a lasting impression on someone’s life as well as their community.
During the pandemic as more people became unemployed and had limited resources, the demand for food assistance reached critical levels. As a local community bank, we responded to the needs of our communities during this difficult time by donating $20,000 in response to the growing food assistance demands of Maryland, Delaware and Virginia Food Banks who worked tirelessly to purchase and distribute food to those in need.
With the absence of in-person social gatherings and events due to the global pandemic, aid and assistance programs were moved to virtual platforms. Our employees rallied to find solutions to support the community through food pantry drives, collection boxes for 'Toys for Tots'; school supplies; and much needed items for homeless and animal shelters. Over and above the collection drives, we donated $245,000 to support local community organizations.
