Meet Wegman!


Wegman is a puppy in training with Guiding Eyes for the Blind, and he comes to work at our Corporate Headquarters every day with volunteer puppy raiser and Liberty Bank teammate Kristine Carney.

Guiding Eyes for the Blind provides dogs to people with vision loss, and they are passionate about connecting exceptional dogs with individuals for greater independence. Kristine has been a long-time supporter of Guiding Eyes for the Blind because of the independence and companionship her daughter has received from a Guiding Eyes Dog.

Did you know? Taking a Guiding Eyes dog to the work environment for training purposes is a great socialization opportunity. During the experience, each pup is building a reference library so that when they’re out there as working guide dogs, they can say, “been there, done that” and keep right on task for their owner.

Spotted: I spy kindness!


At Liberty Bank, we truly believe that one act of kindness can inspire another. That's why we're thrilled to hear this story from our Meriden branch: "Two young men came into the branch to open a checking account, and both men stated they did not have funds and would come back. A customer overheard the young men did not have $25 to open their accounts, so she handed each of them $25, told them to open their accounts and wished them well!"

Many thanks to this customer for such a kind and generous gesture!

A commitment to service 


Team Liberty contributed 12,000+ volunteer hours in 2022 and dedicated September to volunteerism! September was 'Community Kindness Month,' a bankwide initiative to invest in our communities. Here at Liberty Bank, employee volunteerism is embedded into our culture. Teammates across the bank give their time to causes they care about, and the bank provides each teammate with four volunteer days per year, fully paid. Keep an eye out for us in the community!

Delivering surprises and kindness


During Random Acts of Kindness Week, our teammates headed out to deliver surprises and spread kindness in the communities we call home. At Liberty Bank, we believe that a bank belongs to something much bigger than itself. And a little bit of kindness can go a long way.
