Vermont Business Magazine The Community Bank NA's Rutland, Woodstock Ave, and Green Mountain Plaza branches recently helped Habitat for Humanity of Rutland close the funding gap for its Crescent Street build through a $3,000 donation to purchase necessary supplies. Once complete, the Crescent Street house will become home for a local family in need.
“We’re happy to partner with Habitat for Humanity to help them complete the Crescent Street house build,” Community Bank N.A.

With this build, Habitat is making that a reality for a local family. We’re so proud to be a part of it.”
