In my 24 years with Martha's Vineyard Bank, I’ve watched our commitment to the community deepen in meaningful and measurable ways. I’ve had the opportunity to volunteer with many nonprofits on and off the Island, supported by the Bank’s policy of providing employees with eight paid hours during the workday to serve the organization of their choice. It is truly inspiring to see how Martha's Vineyard Bank and its employees demonstrate their care for our communities through this dedicated service.
