Over 100 WSFS and Beneficial Bank Associates and their children participated in the sixth annual “Take Your Children to the Community Week,” WSFS Bank’s spin on the national, “Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day.”

The annual week of community service is coordinated with not-for-profit organizations throughout the Bank’s combined footprint in Delaware, Southeastern Pennsylvania and Southern New Jersey.  It was created to teach the next generation the value of helping others and the impact they can make in their local community.

Throughout the week of April 22nd, children volunteers and Bank Associates volunteered at nine locations in New Castle, Kent and Sussex Counties in Delaware, Chester and Montgomery Counties in Pennsylvania, and Burlington County in South Jersey. 

“Every year, ‘Take Your Children to the Community Week’ embodies all the wonderful things that make up WSFS:  Our culture of service, and our Associates who make this day successful by living our Mission of We Stand For Service, and who inspire in the children around them that same ethos of service to others,” said Vernita Dorsey, Senior Vice President and Director of Community Strategy, WSFS Bank.

Pennsylvania Associates and their children spent the day packing food and coloring food boxes for the Chester County Food Bank and organizing school rooms at the ACLAMO Family Center. At Conshohocken’s Cradles to Crayons, Bank Associates and children volunteers sorted clothing and toys for distribution to underserved children in the community.
