Penn Community Bank has deepened its relationship with Keystone Opportunity Center with the addition of Kelly Boyle, Manager of Corporate Social Responsibility & Government Affairs at Penn Community Bank, to the organization’s board of directors.

In 2024, the Bank has contributed $11,000 in funding and dozens of volunteer hours to support the organization’s critical food security, housing assistance, and adult education programs.

“Joining the board of Keystone Opportunity Center is a natural extension of Penn Community Bank’s commitment to the communities we serve,” said Boyle. “The work Keystone does in Montgomery County aligns perfectly with our values of fostering financial empowerment and developing thriving communities. We’re excited to contribute not just financially, but also through expanded engagement and team member involvement.”

“Our partnership with Penn Community Bank helps us expand our reach and deepen our impact in addressing critical needs in our community,” said Brandon Trombetta, MSW, Executive Director of Keystone Opportunity Center. “Having Kelly on our team, in addition to the generous support from the bank, bolsters our capacity and powers positive change for thousands of Montgomery County residents.”

Keystone Opportunity Center seeks to fight housing insecurity and provide safe, affordable housing while combating food insecurity and offering educational opportunities for adults. In 2023, the organization distributed over 486,000 pounds of food, providing housing for 128 individuals, and educating 554 students across Montgomery County. Notably, the Food Pantry saw a 25 percent increase in distribution compared to the previous year. Through Community Case Management, Keystone provided over $17,000 in direct financial assistance and offered thousands of support contacts, many through their Bi-Lingual Community Assistance Coordinator. The organization’s impact was further amplified by dedicated volunteers who contributed nearly 9,000 hours to support Keystone’s mission of fostering self-sufficiency and improving lives in the community.

Earlier this year, Penn Community Bank teamed with Keystone Opportunity Center as part of its third annual Day of Service.
