SCRANTON, Pa. – Peoples Security Bank & Trust Co. of Scranton ordered lunch from Di Vinci’s Pizza for 125 employees at Geisinger Community Medical Center last week to honor frontline workers.
Throughout the month of March, Peoples Security Bank donated more than 1,600 meals from area restaurants to 13 hospitals across the state and in New York. Up to 125 frontline providers from each hospital received a lunch or dinner, along with by a special message of encouragement and appreciation for their selflessness and commitment to their patients.
“Over the past year, most of us have spent all of our waking hours thinking about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and what it means for us and our families,” said Alicen Backus, marketing representative for Peoples Security Bank. “People who live in our communities have all faced hardships in one way or another, and no one has experienced the impact more than our healthcare workers, who have been working on the frontline, day in and day out, through it all.“
To honor their continued service and sacrifices, Peoples Security Bank pledged more than $80,000 in the past year to support healthcare workers and regional food banks within the bank’s Pennsylvania-based footprint grappling with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“On behalf of everyone at Peoples Security Bank & Trust, thank you to everyone at Geisinger for all that you do for our community,” Backus said.
