In a display of their ongoing partnership, The Arc of the South Shore has added “We Bank Local with South Shore Bank” on the sides of their fleet of vans, proudly celebrating the strong relationship they have built together. This gesture highlights the trust and support between the two local organizations and demonstrates their shared commitment to community engagement. The new branding on the van serves as an appreciation, honoring South Shore Bank’s dedication to supporting The Arc’s mission and initiatives.
The Arc of the South Shore has helped 100,000 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, including autism, live their best lives and achieve high-quality outcomes.
South Shore Bank CEO, Jim Dunphy, commented on the partnership, “We’re honored to support The Arc of the South Shore and proud to see our commitment to the local community and their belief in Banking Local reflected on their vans. Together, we’re making a lasting difference for people and families in our Community.”
“Beyond our banking relationship, Devin Kane, Commercial Relationship Manager at South Shore Bank, serves as a Board Member. Bank employees volunteer their time, participate in sponsored events, and the Bank generously supports The Arc through charitable donations. The Arc relies on the support of local organizations and people to strengthen our services, develop new initiatives, and ensure the highest quality care for people with disabilities. We’re proud to partner with a local bank who shares our values,” added Liz Sandblom, Chief Executive Officer The Arc of the South Shore.
