DOYLESTOWN, PA - C&N, a leading financial services company across Pennsylvania and New York, recently donated $31,000 to Plumstead Christian School under the Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program (EITC).

Plumstead Christian School is a preschool through 12th grade independent, non-denominational, college preparatory school with two campuses located in Bucks County, PA that provides a caring environment where students are educated to think biblically, serve effectively and lead Christ-centered lives. The school was founded in 1948 and was voted in the top 50 Christian schools in the U.S.

This donation will be used for scholarships granted by the school. Patrick Fitzpatrick, Plumstead Christian School Head of School remarked "It is a real blessing that C&N participates in Pennsylvania's EITC program on behalf of Plumstead Christian School. Their generosity allows numerous EITC-eligible families to afford the high cost of Christian schooling. We are so thankful for our longstanding banking relationship and the friendship we have with the incredible C&N team".

On hand to present the check and represent C&N were Blair T. Rush, President of C&N's Southeast Region, Cindy Zamroz, VP, Commercial Lending Relationship Manager II and Lauri Dale, VP, Business Banking Specialist. Mr. Rush commented, "C&N is honored to partner with Plumstead Christian School in their endeavor to create an environment where students thrive in the vital areas of faith, virtue and knowledge. The quality education offered at Plumstead Christian School is cultivating the next generation with the faith, character and competence they need to become successful".
