Rockland Trust associates dressed
as famous literary characters for its
Reading Makes Cent$ program
Saving money one story at a time
In August, Rockland Trust of Hanover, Mass., wrapped
up its 14th annual Reading Makes Cent$ program. The
$20 billion-asset community bank created the program in
2009 to encourage children in first through eighth grade
to continue reading and learning during the summer.
If a student participating in the program reads at least
four books, they qualify for an initial account opening
deposit of $10. For each subsequent book a student reads
during the summer, up to a maximum of 10 books, they
can earn $2.50 in their Rockland Trust savings account.
" I think it's grown relationships with our customers, just
getting the kids involved, showing our commitment to
them and teaching them to save with financial literacy, "
says Lauren DeAngelo, retail marketing off icer.
The community bank also partners with local libraries
to host summer reading kickoff events that promote the
program, with giveaways, read-out-louds and Reading
Makes Cent$ materials, such as a Rockland Trust summer
reading journal. Branches are eager to show their
enthusiasm too, with staff even dressing up as popular
book characters to welcome the students.
" When a little kid goes into a branch, " says Melissa
Guimond, the community bank's public relations specialist,
" it's probably very intimidating, but if they see their
favorite character ... it just brings a whole other element to
banking. " -Tarra Willox
