Wayne Bank Makes EITC Donation to the Abington Community Library

Jim Donnelly, President and Chief Executive Officer of Wayne Bank, is pleased to announce that Wayne Bank has supported the Abington Community Library through the Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program (EITC).

Allyson Wind, Executive Director of the Abington Community Library, accepted a check in the amount of $3,000 from John Koczwara, Vice President and Community Office Manager, Deb Kennedy, Senior Vice President and Director of Retail Banking, and Trip Crowley, Vice President and Commercial Loan Officer at Wayne Bank. 

"Public libraries are essential to building stronger, more connected communities by providing access to education, technology, and lifelong learning opportunities," said Jim Donnelly, President and Chief Executive Officer of Wayne Bank. "Wayne Bank is proud to support the Abington Community Library and its mission to inspire curiosity, encourage literacy, and provide valuable resources that benefit individuals and families of all ages.”

The mission of the Abington Community Library is to facilitate lifelong learning, provide for leisure-time interests, support student research, and encourage teens, children, and adults to read. In addition to its collection of books and digital resources, the library offers educational programs, children's story times, technology access, community events, and spaces where residents can learn, connect, and grow. Through these services, the Abington Community Library continues to serve as an important resource for individuals and families throughout the region.

This gift was made possible because of the Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program offered by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, acting through the Department of Community and Economic Development.
