First Resource Bank marks a record-breaking year of community investment, contributing $450,000 through the Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program to support 60 local schools and educational organizations.
This landmark achievement underscores the Bank’s deep commitment to expanding educational opportunities that drive the growth, vitality, and long-term success in the communities it serves.
This milestone comes as First Resource Bank celebrates its 20th anniversary. Since opening its doors in 2005, the Bank has provided more than $4 million in community support to local schools, businesses, and civic organizations, reflecting two decades of unwavering dedication to making a positive impact.
“Giving back to the communities that have given so much to us has always been a core part of who we are,” said Lauren Ranalli, President and CEO of First Resource Bank. “Supporting educational causes is a powerful way to do that. It opens doors and creates opportunities, and we are proud to help organizations that share our commitment to building a brighter future for every student and family in our community.”
This financial commitment was amplified by the passion and dedication of the First Resource Bank team, who devoted hundreds of volunteer hours to local nonprofits, schools, and community organizations in 2025. From rolling up their sleeves for hands-on service projects to taking on leadership roles in community initiatives, employees demonstrated that giving back isn’t just something the Bank does. It’s a core part of its culture and values.
