The leadership team and board of directors of Presence Bank recently announced a new partnership with Make-A-Wish Philadelphia, Delaware & Susquehanna Valley. The partnership has committed funding to grant wishes to critically ill children within the bank's communities.

Presence Bank's goal is to fund three wishes within the first few years of the campaign. For every new personal or business checking account, excluding not-for-profit and municipal accounts, Presence Bank will donate $25 to Make-A-Wish. At that time, new account holders will have the option to make a personal donation to Make-A-Wish. If a new account holder makes a personal donation, Presence Bank will match it up to $25. The bank has also organized an internal team responsible for creating giving opportunities while raising funds.

Founded in 1919, Presence Bank is a state-chartered FDIC bank headquartered in Coatesville. Presence Bank provides commercial and personal financial products and services through online and mobile banking or four branches and two loan production offices located in Chester, Lancaster, and Dauphin counties.
