President’s Message
Dear Valued Customers, Community Members, and Friends,
At Seneca Savings, our commitment to the communities we serve has always been at the heart of everything we do. As a community bank, we take great pride in fostering relationships that strengthen local businesses, empower individuals, and create lasting opportunities for growth and success. We are dedicated to assisting all clients at every stage of their life’s journey—whether they are purchasing their first home, growing a business, planning for retirement, or navigating life’s financial milestones. I am excited to share several significant developments that underscore our dedication to this mission.
Expanding Our Presence: Manlius and Clay
In May 2025, we will be opening our newest branch in Manlius, NY. This expansion represents more than just a new location; it is an extension of our promise to provide accessible, personalized financial services to more individuals and businesses in Central New York. We look forward to becoming an integral part of the Manlius community, supporting its residents, and helping local businesses thrive.
Additionally, we are thrilled to announce the purchase of 2.5 acres of land in the Town of Clay, directly across from the future Micron site. This strategic investment positions us to support the economic growth expected in the region and to provide financial solutions to businesses and families as this transformative development takes shape. We are committed to being a strong financial partner in Clay and beyond, fostering prosperity and opportunity.
Financial Quest: Continued Growth and Impact
Our wholly owned subsidiary, Financial Quest, continues to grow and evolve, offering comprehensive financial planning and investment services tailored to our clients’ unique needs. As we expand our offerings, we remain steadfast in our commitment to helping individuals and businesses achieve their financial goals with confidence and clarity.
Commitment to Community Reinvestment
Beyond banking, we believe in reinvesting in the communities we serve. Each year, we contribute thousands of dollars to local initiatives and nonprofit organizations that make a meaningful impact. Some of the worthwhile ventures we support include Home Headquarters, The Diaper Bank, Peace, Inc., In My Father’s Kitchen, Clear Path for Veterans, Paige’s Butterfly Run, and many more. Through these partnerships, we strive to uplift those in need, foster economic stability, and enhance the quality of life for individuals and families across our region.
Promoting Financial Literacy with Everfi
We believe that financial education is a cornerstone of a strong community. Through our partnership with Everfi, we are proud to promote financial literacy in local schools, equipping students with the knowledge and skills they need to make informed financial decisions. By investing in financial education, we are investing in the future success of our youth and our communities.
As we embark on this exciting chapter of growth and expansion, I want to personally thank you—our customers, community partners, and team members—for your continued trust and support. Seneca Savings remains dedicated to serving you with integrity, innovation, and a genuine commitment to your financial well-being. We look forward to building a brighter future together.
Sincerely,
Joseph Vitale
President, Seneca Savings
