This week, First Commonwealth Bank has been celebrating America Saves Week, and they have been honored by the FDIC for one of their community programs.
First Commonwealth was recently recognized by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in their winter 2020 Money Smart Success Stories publication for having the “Impactful Money Smart for Adults Partnership of the Year.” This is for the program First Commonwealth started with Goodwill Industries of Southwestern Pennsylvania to provide non-violent offenders the chance to serve the rest of their sentence in a community setting and get them to resume their careers and return to the workforce, while getting help reintegrating into the community.
As of the end of last year, First Commonwealth Bank has taught 22 sessions to over 220 participants.
