Univest Financial Announces Fundraising Campaign

in Support of the American Red Cross Southeastern Pennsylvania Region

Univest will Match Each Donation with a Total Gift of up to $10,000

SOUDERTON, Pa., November 1, 2021 – Univest Financial today announced it is supporting the American Red Cross Southeastern Pennsylvania Region with a fundraising campaign in which Univest will match each donation made with a total gift of up to $10,000. With uncertainty lingering due to the pandemic, Univest is keeping the safety of its employees a priority by hosting this online campaign rather than holding holiday drives at each of its offices as it did pre-COVID. Donations can be made online at https://rdcrss.org/univest through Monday, November 29. Donations will help support disaster response in Southeastern Pennsylvania and across the nation.

“Univest firmly believes in giving back to the communities we serve and continuing to make these investments during uncertain times is a testament to our corporate values and dedication to our Committed to Local philanthropic giving program,” said Jeff Schweitzer, President and CEO of Univest Financial Corporation. “As we approach Thanksgiving and reflect on all we have to be grateful for, we thought it was a great time to provide the opportunity for our employees, customers and community members to double the impact of their donation to the American Red Cross Southeastern Pennsylvania Region. As we recently saw with the destruction caused by Hurricane Ida, disaster response by the American Red Cross is vital. Univest is proud to be able to support its efforts.”
