The Dime Bank has donated $10,000 to Lackawanna College in support of the Lackawanna College Environmental Institute (LCEI). The Dime Bank’s donation will assist in funding activities geared towards learning more about the environment, ecology, renewable and non-renewable resources, technology and biodiversity.
Lackawanna College Associate Vice President for Advancement Bridget FitzPatrick stated, “Without organizations like The Dime Bank, our mission to educate students and the citizens of Northeast PA could not be sustained.  We are thankful that we are able to provide this service to the community.”
Lackawanna College Environmental Institute is housed on the 42 acre Moffat Estate in Covington Township. Their building contains space for seminars, research and hands-on workshops.
This donation was made in 2010 as a part of the PA Department of Community  and Economic Development’s Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC)  program.  The EITC program provides tax credits to businesses that make  contributions to approved organizations in the area of education improvement/learning.
The Dime Bank has been helping the residents of Wayne and Pike counties in Pennsylvania and Sullivan County, New York meet their financial needs since 1905.  With offices currently in Honesdale, downtown Hawley, Damascus, Greentown, Dingmans Ferry, the lake region of Hawley, the bank offers a full array of financial services and solutions ranging from traditional products to electronic banking and trust and investment services.  Community banking yields community benefits.
