In the Community
Washington Trust is well known for our community involvement
We believe that our success as an institution is part and parcel of the achievement of the communities as a whole. Sometimes the solution is grant money; sometimes it's brainstorming. And sometimes it's simply lending a hand. Washington Trust is proud to reach out to the community in a variety of ways that are meaningful, needed, and appreciated.
Volunteerism
Our employees are actively involved in the community, serving as board members, committee chairs, coaches, and mentors.
Sponsorships
Washington Trust sponsors a wide range of community events and activities such as road races, concerts, and festivals.
Charitable Giving
The Washington Trust Charitable Foundation provides grants to 501(c)(3) organizations from Rhode Island, Massachusetts and southeastern Connecticut.
Peanut Butter Drive
Since Washington Trust started its Peanut Butter Drive in 2001, we have collected more than 151 tons of peanut butter!
