Mutual Bank takes green initiative with filtration water systems
In one of a series of green initiatives, Mutual Bank, a community bank with nine branches throughout southeastern Mass. and on Cape Cod, has installed filtrated water systems in all its locations, thereby eliminating bottled water.
The installation of filtered water seemed like a perfect solution for Theresa Bryant, vice president of retail banking administration, who said, "Here at Mutual Bank, we are actively looking for ways to be environmentally responsible, while at the same time provide additional benefits for our employees and customers."
"By providing superior quality filtrated drinking water we also reduce the waste stream through the elimination of bottled water; we're pleased to be able to make this responsible change," said Glen White, chief executive officer of Mutual Bank.
Mutual Bank is an independent, mutually-owned bank serving the community's personal and small business banking needs, with full-service offices in Brockton, Carver, Falmouth, Halifax, Hanson, Middleboro, Plymouth, and Whitman. The Bank has operated continuously as an independent, local institution for more than a century. For more information, visit www.MyMutualBank.com.
