At Coastal Heritage Bank, we prioritize helping others and giving back to our local communities.

We are proud of the work our Coastal Crew accomplished in cleaning up Peggotty Beach on April 15th! Our team, comprised of Coastal Heritage Bank employees, made quick work of removing nearly half a ton of plastic, wood, broken lobster pots, rubber mats, and more from the beach premises.

We cannot thank our staff enough for participating in the beach cleanup, on a weekend no less, and for supporting the Coastal Cares cause.
