Commitment to Being Here for You

Since its founding in 1906, F&M Trust has been actively engaged in the communities it serves. The bank takes seriously its role as a valued partner with individuals, businesses, schools, and service organizations. F&M Trust is focused on creating positive social impact.

F&M Trust is committed to improving the lives of residents in the communities we serve. Bank employees annually contribute more than 1,500 volunteer service hours to local organizations, and dozens of employees hold positions of leadership in community groups and serve on the boards of directors for local nonprofit agencies. Additionally, the bank donates an average of at least $500,000 across our regional footprint, including more than $100,000 for student scholarships through Pennsylvania’s EITC program.
