Provident Bank team members recently participated in Read Across America Day. Bank employees read children’s books to more than 800 pre-school and elementary school students at 15 public schools, early learning centers, and community childcare centers across the bank’s footprint. In addition, Provident Bank donated children’s books to the schools in support of the initiative.
