First Hope Means Business

“It is so important to me that everyone know this bank is actually helping the community and local small businesses. I want to give credit where credit is due, my business Island Dragway is forced closed by COVID-19. I applied for the Paycheck Protection Plan as soon as it was available and have heard horror stories from friends using big-name banks. First Hope Bank was on top of everything, in constant communication, and always treated my business as a priority without blowing me off for a ‘bigger fish.’ Thanks to them I can pay my full-time employees and our health insurance for eight more weeks.”

— Melissa M., Island Dragway

“Thank you First Hope Bank for your assistance in helping to stabilize our finances during these difficult and uncertain times with COVID-19. Your community support is essential to our success!”

— Family Promise of Sussex County

It’s hard to only have a few sentences to describe the relationship and positive experiences that I have with First Hope. Specifically with Deena and Dawn who have both been bedrock foundations to my relationship with First Hope. They care, they try, they are not just a big box bank that is looking to get more from you. They are looking to DO MORE for you. That is why they bend over backwards to help me and I have no reason to switch away.
