AG Cutrona, senior VP – chief banking officer at Generations Bank, applied for the FHLBNY grant on behalf of the nonprofits.

“Generations is committed to giving back to the communities that we serve,” Cutrona said in a news release. “We are grateful to the local not-for-profit organizations that work so hard to give back to the Union Springs Community. These grants will have a lasting impact on the organizations receiving the funding and get them off to a positive start to the New Year.”

Tom Settino, VP of member relations at FHLBNY, had made Cutrona aware of the funding and application process, Generations Bank noted. Union Springs Mayor Robert Thurston, Jr. also provided “direction, support, and responsiveness” during the grant process.

“I can’t thank the team at Generations Bank enough for all their hard work to make this grant a dream come true for our community,” Thurston said in the Generations Bank release. “The funding that we were able to secure together will provide a huge relief to our community not-for-profits that work so hard every day to take care of our community. We look forward to working with Generations Bank in the future to help our community grow and prosper.”
