Enterprise Bank supports annual Sun Santa Fund
Each year, Enterprise Bank team members and departments host various fundraising events to help support The Sun Santa Fund. Departments and branches plan and support events throughout the year including a Baked Potato Day, Holiday Breakfast, and numerous Bake Sales. Efforts by Enterprise Bankers throughout 2018 resulted in a record breaking $11,000 donation to the 30th Anniversary edition of The Sun Santa Fund.
In addition to the popular food-related fundraising events, in December, the “Enterprise Bank Sun Santa Elves” host the annual Sun Santa Countdown to Christmas calendar raffle. At least two prizes are raffled off each business day during December. Prizes include gift cards and gift baskets donated by departments within the Bank, along with bonus and mystery prizes. Bonus prizes for the 2018 raffle included premium tickets to Boston Celtics and Boston Bruins games and a Samsung 50” Smart TV. Raffle ticket sales benefit The Sun Santa Fund. The 2018 Enterprise Bank Sun Santa Elves team organizing the raffle were Jackie Silva, Erica Getchell, Mark Watson, Andy Bourassa, Shelby Descoteaux, and Jane Privitera.
In addition to the raffle and fundraising events, canisters for direct collection of funds were located throughout the Bank during December.
