At Happy 2 be Home, our mission is rooted in the belief that every family deserves a safe, accessible home, especially when caring for a chronically ill child. We are incredibly grateful for the support of local partners who help us turn this mission into reality, and today we want to shine a spotlight on one of those key partners: Ambler Savings Bank.

A Partnership Built on Impact
In January 2023, our organization received a generous $1,003 matching gift from Ambler Savings Bank. This contribution was not just a donation; it was a testament to the relationship built between our President, Scott Hamrick, and the Ambler Savings Bank team.
The funds were part of the bank’s Matching Grant Program—an initiative launched in 2020 to provide dollar-for-dollar matching gifts for funds raised by local non-profits up to $5,000. Since the program’s inception, Ambler Savings Bank has helped organizations like ours raise over $150,000, directly benefiting families facing significant challenges.
More Than Just a Bank
Ambler Savings Bank’s commitment to our community is deep and mission-driven. They focus on donating 5–7% of their after-tax profits to local charitable organizations, with a specific focus on:
- Education & Youth Development
- Affordable Housing
- Hunger, Poverty & Social Services
- Community Development
Their dedication to “Quality of Life” aligns perfectly with our work at H2bH. By supporting organizations that directly improve the living conditions of local families, Ambler Savings Bank is helping to create a stronger, more resilient community for everyone.
