Community Baby Drive at Branches

During the month of August, our Mattapoisett Branch will be collecting baby items in benefit of Women United and United Way of Greater New Bedford. Support new moms by donating new & unopened baby essentials including: receiving blankets, bottles, onesies, pacifiers, etc. Baby Bundles will be packaged and distributed during their Community Baby Shower this October. You can also purchase items directly from their registries at Target, Walmart, or Amazon by visiting the United Way of Greater New Bedford Website.

Supporting moms since 2019, Baby Bundles provides carefully packaged bundles for new and expecting mothers who need additional support with resources and information.

In the form of a traditional baby shower, United Way of Greater New Bedford’s Women United hosts a Community Baby Shower for new and expectant mothers. The event serves local families and provides valuable resources to support their parenting journey while also celebrating the recent or pending birth of their child. Baby Bundles include baby necessities such as diapers, wipes, bottles, books and more.

Wareham Branch

When one door closes, another one opens.

First Citizens’ takes pride in living our core value of Doing What’s Right and providing a meaningful, positive member experience. Due to staffing limitations last year, we made the difficult decision to temporarily close our Wareham Branch. Since then, time has granted us clarity around our mission and impact in the Wareham community and helped us determine our reach is possible regardless of a physical branch presence.

For that reason, First Citizens’ will be permanently closing our Wareham Branch located at 396 Onset Ave effective June 6, 2024. We invite our valued members to enjoy the same high-quality service and banking convenience at our 10 other branch locations, and for even more convenience, through our online and mobile banking app.

Online and mobile banking allows 24/7 access to perform many day-to-day transactions. You can deposit checks, transfer funds, set up bill pay and so much more. Need to pay a loan? You can pay loans through online banking, by calling 877-333-5363, or by visiting our loan payment center on our website.

Rest assured, we will continue to be present and support the Greater Wareham community. Over the last decade, we’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with many cherished community organizations in the area. We are eager to continue assisting those organizations along with the many local businesses we have built strong relationships with.

In addition to this change, we are very excited to announce the opening of our new Plymouth location coming in 2025. We can’t wait to expand our support into other communities within our footprint. We will share groundbreaking information as we get closer.
