PARTNERSHIP FOR EDUCATIONAL ASSISTANCE AND COMMUNITY HELP
2 East Main Street, Georgetown, MA 01833

1. What is PEACH?

PEACH is the Partnership for Educational Assistance

and Community Help. It is a program designed by

Georgetown Savings Bank to help support public

education in our communities; in this particular case,

the North Andover Schools. The Bank has partnered

with the North Andover Foundation for Education to

help raise $500,000 by June of 2007, which will

be used to help put teachers back in the classroom.

 

2. How does the program work?

It’s really simple. Just bring a PEACH referral coupon

into one of our branches, and open a new WOW!,

GO!, or SNAP checking account with direct deposit,

and we’ll do the rest by making a $100 donation to

the Foundation. Only active accounts, defined as

receiving at least twice monthly deposits, and recurring

payment activity, will qualify.

 

3. Can I participate in the program if I am an existing

Georgetown Savings Bank customer?

Yes and No. All present GSB customers may participate

unless they are a signer on an existing checking

account. But that’s not a bad thing. Because of your

past support, we have been able to sponsor

scholarships at each of our local High Schools; the

Links for Learning Golf Tournament; the summer concert

series and many other charitable initiatives. All other

GSB customers, CD, Money Market, Savings, and

Mortgage customers can participate by opening a

new Georgetown Savings Bank checking account.

 

4. Can I participate in the program if I do not have

a child in the North Andover school system?

Yes. Friends, family, neighbors… anyone who wants

to help support public education in North Andover

may participate.

 

5. Do I need to live in North Andover to qualify for

the program?

No. If you live or work in one of our surrounding towns,

we would love to have you as a checking account

customer. Right now, the $100 donation will still be

made to the North Andover Foundation for Education.

 

6. Will the PEACH program be available to support

public education in other towns?

Right now we are piloting the program in North Andover.

And although we reserve the right to end the program

at any time, we would certainly be interested in

discussing the PEACH program with other towns.

 

7. If I open more than one account will I qualify for

more than one donation?

No. You and the joint signer (if any) on your account

may qualify only once for the donation.

 

8. Whom may I contact if I need more information?

Joseph Pollard, VP/Retail Banking, or Rosalie Schniederjans,

AVP/North Andover Office, at 978-352-8600.
