Team WSFS and We Stand for Service

WSFS’ vision, “we envision a day when everyone will thrive,” is a lofty ambition that we’re working together to achieve. Our social purpose is fueled by our dedicated Associates who believe in investing their time, resources, energy and passion into our Communities.

Our corporate volunteer program, Team WSFS, encourages Associates to volunteer with nonprofits of their choice in our region. WSFS backs up our commitment to our Communities by providing each Associate four hours per month of compensated work time for volunteer activities, as well as by working closely with nonprofits to identify board and committee service opportunities for Associates.

By leveraging our Associates’ skills through nonprofit board and committee leadership roles, WSFS is helping to strengthen the organizations and reduce expenses for expertise the nonprofits would otherwise have to pay for, while also providing valuable leadership experience to our Associates. These volunteer efforts in our Communities as well as service on nonprofit boards and committees play a key role in our virtuous cycle: when we do well, our Communities do well, and when our Communities do well, we do well.

In 2022, Associates logged 17,643 volunteer hours, including providing financial literacy lessons and serving with community organizations across our footprint.

On June 14, 2023, we re-emphasized our commitment to our Communities by celebrating the inaugural “We Stand for Service Day,” an all-Associate volunteer initiative where we closed our banking offices for a half day so that approximately 1,200 Associates could volunteer nearly 5,000 hours at more than 80 organizations and make an impact across the Greater Philadelphia and Delaware region.
