September 17, 2019

News

Columbia Bank is pleased to announce that their Thirty-First Annual Charity Golf Classic at North Jersey Country Club in Wayne raised $100,000 for the benefit of Strengthen Our Sisters a local non-profit program serving homeless/battered women and children. Nearly 150 golfers took part in this annual charitable fund raiser.

According to Thomas Kemly, Columbia’s President and Chief Executive Officer, “Our annual golf classic was another successful charitable endeavor for Team Columbia. We are extremely pleased that we were able to support the outstanding efforts of Strengthen Our Sisters which helps so many needy women and children break the cycle of domestic violence, poverty and abuse. As a true community-based bank, we remain committed to helping local organizations that make a difference in people’s lives.”

In addition, earlier this year it was learned that this shelter was in foreclosure and was on the verge of being shut down. The Columbia Bank Foundation responded with a $50,000 grant and assumed responsibility for their outstanding mortgage. As a result of the bank’s quick response, the lights were kept on with no interruption of service taking place.
