At First National Community Bank, we are dedicated to the communities we serve and are committed to supporting nonprofit organizations that promote quality of life within our service area.
FNCB contributes thousands of dollars every year to deserving programs in Northeastern Pennsylvania, including organizations serving low to moderate income individuals.
In order to have a meaningful community impact, a contribution policy has been established to assist in determining the organizations to be considered for support.
We will consider providing support to applicants that are tax-exempt and located in areas served by our 21 branches in Northeastern Pennsylvania. Applicants generally must be designated as tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Organizations that actively partner with FNCB by banking with us and providing recognition of the bank's support will receive preferred consideration. Local organizations receive priority over national organizations.
We primarily consider donations/sponsorships for organizations in the following categories:
Requests given preferential consideration are organizations that meet the following criteria:
While we consider it our responsibility to support the communities where we are located through charitable contributions, we are unable to grant requests that do not align with our mission. These include, but are not limited to: political organizations, organizations which do not directly benefit the community, donations to individuals, donations for trips or tours, advertising for benefit purposes, telephone solicitation, events that have already taken place and organizations that discriminate.
