Boston Business Journal Names Dedham Savings Among The Most Charitable Companies in Massachusetts
The Boston Business Journal has named Dedham Savings an honoree in its annual 2024 Corporate Citizenship Awards, a recognition of the region’s top corporate charitable contributors.
The Business Journal annually publishes this list to showcase companies that promote and prioritize giving back to their communities.
“It is with honor that we present our list of the Top Charitable Contributors in Massachusetts – companies who gave $100,000 or more to Mass.-based in charities in 2023. Collectively, they gave more than $423 million in cash contributions – a true example of the business community coming together to help those in need. We are proud to celebrate these organizations who give both money and time to make Boston a stronger and better place for all.” said Boston Business Journal Market President and Publisher Carolyn Jones.
This year 100 companies have qualified for the distinction by reporting at least $100,000 in cash contributions to Massachusetts-based charities last year as noted above. The honorees this year include companies from such industry sectors as financial and professional services, health care, technology, retail, and professional sports.
Dedham Savings, whose contributions include both the corporation and its charitable foundation, will be honored at the BBJ’s 18th Annual Corporate Citizenship Awards on Thursday, September 5th at the Seaport Hotel (1 Seaport Lane, Boston) from 5:30pm – 8:30pm.
The evening will be filled with networking, making connections, and recognizing all the Charitable Contributors, the Alan B. Lewis | Alnoba CEO Social Leadership Award and our 2024 Corporate Citizenship Community Collaboration Awardees (previously our Partners of the Year).
Mark Ingalls, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Dedham Savings, expressed his gratitude for the recognition received from the Boston Business Journal. He acknowledged the importance of supporting local communities, which aligns with the Bank’s mission. In 2023, Dedham Savings and its Community Foundation donated nearly $1 million dollars to local community organizations.
According to Ingalls, “Dedham Savings actively engages in philanthropic giving and strongly supports employee volunteerism. Our efforts promote community growth, stability, economic development, housing, education, youth, and the arts. We remain dedicated to strengthening small businesses and individuals, specifically those in need, in our markets.”
