Some of the packages that were sent to troops for the Soldier Comfort Kit program.
This year’s Soldier Comfort Kit Program was another success! 60 large packages were shipped for the holiday season to our troops serving overseas.
This marks the 8th year that First Savings Bank offices accepted items from customers as well as employees, from October thru November, and the response was terrific!
In addition, special thanks to Pennridge North Student Council and teacher Aliese Davis for coordinating a school-wide drive for items to be included in the Soldier Comfort Kits.
Thanks to everyone who helped to make this year another success and remembering our troops!
The fourth annual “Senior Fair and Forum” sponsored by First Savings Banking-Insurance-Investments and Trusts will have added meaning this year as long time senior citizen advocate, Nancy Keenan, will be remembered at the event.
The Senior Fair and Forum will be held Thursday, October 6, at the Pennridge Senior Center, 146 East Main Street, Silverdale. The free, public educational session will run from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. and is geared for area residents approaching 55 years of age or older. Information will be available from more than 20 organizations that are scheduled to attend, all focusing on Senior Citizen issues, concerns and lifestyles.
One of the highlights of this year’s event will be the recognition and honoring of Nancy Keenan, long-time civic activist and elder care advocate, who passed away in December 2010. Scheduled to attend the event are representatives of Congress, the State Senate, State Representatives, Pennsylvania’s Secretary of Aging, as well as Directors, Chairpersons and members of the Bucks County Area Agency on Aging and County Commissioners Office.
“Mrs. Keenan’s true passion was for the elderly. She became a mostly self-taught authority on elderly law and healthcare following her 1987 completion of the Close Up Foundation’s “Area Agency on Aging Advisory Council Leadership Forum” in Washington, D.C., noted Dean Souder, Vice President, Trust Officer of First Savings. “She served as chairperson of the Bucks County Area Agency on Aging Advisory Council and also the Southeast Regional Council of the Pennsylvania Council on Aging. She also wrote ‘The Prime Time’ column in an area newspaper, covering issues of importance to the elderly, including Medicare program changes, guardianships, and living wills. Most notably, Mrs. Keenan was a driving force behind the building of the new Pennridge Community Senior Center in Silverdale. In addition she was instrumental in organizing the Pennridge Senior Center Association, Inc. Her advocacy was recognized with many well-earned accolades and awards at the state, county and municipal levels.”
“Another new addition to this year’s Sr. Fair will be our version of the ‘Antique Roadshow’ with an appraiser on hand,” said Souder. “If you are interested in having an item appraised, bring it to the Fair; we ask that only one item per person be appraised, due to the time restraints.”
In addition to the exhibitors and guest speakers; prizes, give-aways and refreshments will be available. Further information can be obtained by calling First Savings at 215-257-5035.
