Johnstown, PA (NASDAQ: ASRV) – AmeriServ Bank announced today that it has donated $5,000 to the Windber, PA-based Joyce Murtha Breast Care Center as part of its annual October account opening campaign. The donation will help fund financial assistance for patients in need; the latest equipment and technology needed to screen, detect, and diagnose breast cancer; and breast cancer awareness and education.
For every savings or checking account opened throughout the month of October, AmeriServ pledged to donate $25 to the Joyce Murtha Breast Care Center and continue to support the fight against breast cancer. “This is the fourth year that we’ve held the campaign and the response continues to be outstanding,” Susan Tomera Angeletti, AmeriServ senior vice president – marketing and alternative delivery, said. “There are people within the communities we serve who need help getting the medical attention they need. If we can help someone along their journey to better health, a better diagnosis and treatment program or just providing the peace of mind of knowing funds exist to pay for a test, we are making a difference. That is why our partnership with the Breast Care Center is so important, it makes a difference to someone who needs a little extra help.”
Since introducing its account opening campaign in 2020, AmeriServ Bank has donated $20,000 to the Joyce Murtha Breast Care Center. Erin Goins, Director of Women’s Services for Chan Soon-Shiong Medical Center at Windber, said “AmeriServ Bank’s generous support of the Joyce Murtha Breast Care Center will allow us to provide services to our patients who may normally delay or skip vital screenings due to financial hardship. AmeriServ’s ongoing generosity and demonstrated commitment to the patients in our region cannot be overstated and, on behalf of the Joyce Murtha Breast Care Center and our patients, I can’t thank AmeriServ enough.”
