“We are proud to support the dedicated nonprofit organizations throughout Cape Cod that are the beneficiaries of the latest Coop Foundation and Corporate Giving grants and donations,” said Lisa Oliver, Chair, CEO, and President of The Cooperative Bank of Cape Cod.
“As a true community bank,” she said, “we are keenly – and often firsthand – aware of the socioeconomic issues affecting the region and are compelled to do whatever it takes to do whatever we can to assist nonprofits serving Barnstable County.”
The Foundation also distributed the third of four $12,500 installments promised to the Housing Assistance Corporation and the third and final installment of $10,000 supporting Amplify POC Cape Cod.
