The WSFS CARES Foundation, the charitable giving arm of WSFS
Bank (Nasdaq: WSFS), announced it has provided a $10,000 grant to
Minds Matter of Philadelphia, Inc. as part of its continuing series
of philanthropic activities by WSFS and the Foundation.
Minds Matter of Philadelphia, Inc. is a national nonprofit
dedicated to promoting higher education, with 14 chapters across
the country. The Philadelphia chapter was formed in 2011 and has
since served 150 students.
The WSFS CARES Foundation grant will support Minds Matter’s ACT
Prep and College Summer Programs to provide high school students
with the skills and resources needed for success. The ACT Prep
Program provides test taking tips, practice exams and weekly
homework assignments to reinforce what was taught. The College
Summer Program helps students determine where they want to attend
college and what major they wish to pursue, and is designed to
build students’ confidence, independence, ambition, and
motivation.
“Education and leadership development is just one of the core
pillars of the WSFS CARES Foundation, through which we support
great programs like Minds Matter of Philadelphia to help prepare
members of our Communities for success,” said Patrick J. Ward,
Executive Vice President, Pennsylvania Market President at WSFS
Bank and Chairman of the WSFS CARES Foundation. “We look forward to
working together with Minds Matter of Philadelphia to help local
students be successful in college and their careers.”
“The incredibly generous grant from the WSFS CARES Foundation
will be instrumental in helping grow and enhance our programs,”
said Jordan Koslosky, President, Minds Matter of Philadelphia.
“This grant will be used to help fund College Summer Program
tuition and a full school year of ACT prep for our students, which
are opportunities that our students wouldn't have exposure to
without our program and WSFS' support. We are so appreciative of
this grant, and we look forward to maintaining a strong
relationship with WSFS in the future!”
