Northwest Bank Presents Contribution to JARI for NAP Program

Northwest Bank executives, Jim Knipple and Kevin Volk, presented a contribution to JARI in the amount of $50,000.00 for the Neighborhood Assistance Tax Credit Program. Other contributors include: First National Bank, 1st Summit Bank, Somerset Trust Company and In-Shore Technologies.

“Northwest Bank is proud to partner with JARI to support its projects which are geared towards improving the Johnstown community,” says Jim Knipple.

Funding from the tax credit contributions will be used to eliminate blight through a number of approaches: creation of public space; streetscapes; planters; trees; lighting; a reuse study; architectural and engineering assistance; and marketing of underutilized properties in a portion of the Central Business District and Old Conemaugh neighborhood.
