Arlington, VA (October 21, 2016) — National Cooperative Bank (NCB), a leading financial services company dedicated to serving cooperatives nationwide recently held an organization-wide volunteer day where employees volunteered at six local organizations throughout the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area.

“The Bank’s annual Volunteer Day tradition is a critical component of our corporate culture,” said Charles E. Snyder, President and CEO of NCB. “This year we organized our volunteer day during National Co-op Month to live the theme of “Cooperatives Build A Better World. The difference we make working with these organizations empowers both their recipients and our employees, in many ways.”

NCB teams volunteered at the following organizations:
