Charitable Foundation

Sustainable Community Support

In 2001, in honor of the bank’s 150th anniversary, Ulster Savings created a charitable foundation to ensure a sustainable level of community giving. While funded through Ulster Savings Bank, the  Charitable Foundation is operated separately based on a mission to assist the community in the areas of Education, Housing, and Health and Human Services.
