Liberty Bank Foundation Donates $10,000 to Revitalize CDC
SPRINGFIELD — Revitalize Community Development Corp. (CDC) announced a $10,000 grant from the Liberty Bank Foundation to support its annual #GreenNFit Neighborhood Rebuild program. This investment underscores Liberty Bank’s ongoing commitment to building stronger, healthier communities throughout Western Mass. and Connecticut.
The #GreenNFit program brings together volunteers, corporate partners, and community organizations to repair and rehabilitate homes for low-income families, veterans, seniors, and people with disabilities, all in a single neighborhood over the course of one day. In addition to this financial contribution, Liberty Bank employees also roll up their sleeves and volunteer at #GreenNFit events, making a direct and lasting impact on the lives of local residents.
“We are incredibly grateful to Liberty Bank and the Liberty Bank Foundation for their continued support of our mission,” said Colleen Shanley-Loveless, president and CEO of Revitalize CDC. “Their generous donation, combined with their dedicated volunteer efforts, helps us create safe, healthy, and sustainable homes for families in need. This is community partnership at its very best.”
In addition to Liberty’s support of Revitalize CDC, Dawn Creighton, Community Outreach officer at the bank, serves on Revitalize CDC’s board of directors.
“At Liberty Bank, we invest in community partners across our footprint that are aligned with our mission to improve the lives of customers, teammates, and communities for generations to come. But it’s not just an investment of dollars, it’s also an investment of time through Team Liberty’s selfless volunteerism,” said Tony Liberopoulos, Liberty Bank’s Commercial Banking market president in Massachusetts. “When you think of Western Mass. and the nonprofits serving this community, Revitalize CDC and their #GreenFit have rightfully earned the reputation by making our communities an even better place to live. Team Liberty is proud to be their partner in doing that.”
