WSFS Bank Associates and Their Children Volunteer Across the Region for Take Your Children to the Community Day

WILMINGTON, Del. – More than 100 WSFS Bank Associates, their children and family members volunteered on April 22 across the Greater Philadelphia and Delaware region as part of “Take Your Children to the Community Day,” WSFS’ spin on the national “Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day.”

After the early stages of the pandemic forced the cancellation of the event in 2020, WSFS worked with local nonprofits to host the event for the seventh time. Safe and socially distanced events were held throughout the Bank’s footprint in Delaware, Pennsylvania and New Jersey to teach the next generation the value of helping others and the impact they can make in the community.

In case you missed it: Rep. Scanlon Visited Penn Terminals in Eddystone

Member News from Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon

“I had a great visit with the folks at Penn Terminals to discuss the new direct container shipping route between Cork, Ireland and the Port of Chester. The Philadelphia region’s ports are uniquely positioned geographically to serve as a gateway to the entire Northeast, and import more than a third of our fresh produce annually.

This is the first direct shipping route between Ireland and the United States in many years, and it provides both countries a fast and reliable route for food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, and more. Chester is Pennsylvania’s oldest city and, in part due to its place along the Delaware River, was integral in the early economic success of our Commonwealth. The city’s waterfront and business district are undergoing a renaissance, and the whole area has a lot of potential.”
