Northern Bank has an honorable legacy of community
service throughout Middlesex County. Our dedication to supporting
financial literacy for children, raising awareness to end hunger,
assisting the community with housing needs, and providing service for
children, low income, and seniors in our community have not only allowed
us to make a significant difference, but they have also helped us stand
out as a leader in Charitable Giving.
On Tuesday December 10th, Jim Mawn, President and CEO of Northern
Bank, was honored as Heading Home’s Corporate Partner of the Year. Once
Jim was first introduced to Heading Home, he never looked back. He is
now on the Board of Directors at Heading Home and, along with Northern
Bank employees, he continues to participate in several “Up and Out
Moves” a year.
Northern Bank collects household items year-round at their Woburn
headquarters. When an Up and Out opportunity comes around, Jim and Bank
employees take the donated items and furnish a forever home for a
deserving family.
“Jim is a true Changemaker in every sense of the word. His quiet
drive and passionate commitment to Heading Home’s mission is evident in
both how he participates with us individually but also in his role as
leader of Northern Bank”, says Danielle Ferrier, CEO of Heading Home.
“Team Northern is an authentic partner, inspired to “do the right thing”
always, with a healthy impatience for accepting the status quo, and
robust willingness to explore creative solutions. We celebrate Jim and
Northern Bank as our Corporate Partner of the year; an honor so well
deserved for all that you do to help our clients move up and out of
homelessness!”
Aside from participating in Up and Out moves, Northern Bank partners
with Sony Michel, and during the 2019-2020 season, $50,000 was raised to
donate to Heading Home - $1,000 for every touchdown New England scored.
“If you can provide a hand – Provide a hand up,” Jim says, “Help people
climb the ladder”.
Congratulations, Jim Mawn, on being named Heading Home’s Corporate Partner of the Year.
