Chase Manhattan Bank employees on St. Croix and St. Thomas will be hard at work on Saturday, Nov. 13 — as community volunteers participating in the bank's 5th annual Global Day of Service.
They'll be cleaning, painting, landscaping, entertaining and spending time with children and senior citizens in a total of eight projects.
On St. Croix, bank volunteers will donate their time and energy to sprucing up the Pearl B. Larsen School.
Their St. Thomas counterparts will be volunteering at the Lucinda Millin Home for the Aged, the Nana Baby Children's Home, the Humane Society, Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church and the Joseph Gomez, Joseph Sibilly and Montessori Schools.
