Federal Savings Bank Donates $5,000 to Families First

Federal Savings Bank recently made a $5,000 donation to Families First Health and Support Center in Portsmouth, to help meet a $25,000 challenge match gift. Families First provides health and family services to the community, regardless of the ability to pay and significantly contributes to the well-being of over 6,300 area residents each year.

"The mission of Families First to provide quality service to our local communities is directly aligned with the philanthropic mission at Federal Savings Bank and we are so pleased to support this organization," said James J. O'Neill, Jr., Federal Savings Bank President & CEO. In a challenging economy and with budget cuts to important resources such as health care, it is crucial that our community partners work together in helping the Seacoast thrive. "I would encourage area businesses, families, and individuals to step up and help such a worthy organization," O'Neill added.

"The ability to provide comprehensive health care and lifestyle resources to our neighbors in need is truly admirable," said David McArdle, FSB SVP/Senior Banking Officer. "As a Finance Committee Member at Families First, I see the direct result of financial generosity from the community, which continuously helps improve the quality and quantity of service," he noted.

Since 1890, Federal Savings Bank has operated as a true community bank, a "mutual" bank. The Bank has offices in Dover, Barrington, Durham, Portsmouth and Rochester.
