At Servbank, giving back is more than a tradition, it’s part of who we are. Guided by our core value, People Matter., we believe that every act of kindness strengthens the communities we serve. Each year, our Season of Serving initiative brings together team members, customers, and community partners to make a meaningful impact. This year, we’re excited to continue that tradition with a special event that celebrates generosity and connection.

Oswego Community Holiday Open House

On Thursday, December 11th, we hosted a Holiday Open House at our Oswego branch.

It’s an opportunity to share joy, express gratitude, and strengthen the bonds that make our communities thrive.
