Investments

This year marks the 140th anniversary of Univest Bank and Trust
Co. which was founded on the premise of helping local communities by taking deposits and making loans. Today, we’re still doing
this and so much more. While providing financial solutions to small
businesses has always been a vital part of Univest’s business, the
company recently expanded its commitment to small businesses
with the creation of a dedicated Small Business Lending team.
With big banks taking the place of community banks in the local

Univest’s personalized service and quick decision making is the
perfect local solution. Univest Bank and Trust Co. is a Member

Upper Perkiomen Valley YMCA
(Community & Commerce Breakfast)
The new facility of the Upper Perkiomen Valley YMCA is a staggering gift to our community. The number of features such as pools,
gyms, indoor track and equipment are magnified by the beauty of

the dizzying array of programs and events being offered at our Y.
It is a health-promoting environment with a friendly staff and is
refreshingly clean. The staff and volunteers are keenly aware that
they are stewards of a great gift. We do not want to simply teach
athleticism, but also character.
