Abington Bank named among most charitable companies in Massachusetts

Abington Bank has received the 2024 Corporate Citizenship Award from Boston Business Journal, recognizing the bank as one of Massachusetts’ top corporate charitable contributors. It’s the second year in a row that Abington Bank has received the honor.

The Business Journal annually publishes this list to showcase companies that promote and prioritize giving back to their communities. Through its sponsorship and charitable giving program, The Giving Tree, Abington Bank and the Abington Bank Charitable Foundation support non-profit organizations and causes throughout the South Shore and South Coast communities it serves. In 2023, The Giving Tree donated more than $500,000 and over the last decade has donated nearly $1.4 million.

“It is with honor that we present our list of the Top Charitable Contributors in Massachusetts – companies who gave $100,000 or more to Mass.-based in charities in 2023. Collectively, they gave $362 million in cash contributions – a true example of the business community coming together to help those in need,” said Boston Business Journal Market President and Publisher Carolyn Jones.

“We’re so proud to once again be recognized as a good corporate citizen, because it’s truly a reflection of our core values,” said Abington Bank President & CEO Andrew J. Raczka. “We strive to unlock potential in the communities we live and work in and hope we can solve our biggest problems by working together.”

This year 100 companies have qualified for the distinction by reporting at least $100,000 in cash contributions to Massachusetts-based charities last year as noted above. The honorees this year include companies from such industry sectors as financial and professional services, health care, technology, retail, and professional sports.
