UMassFive is proud to announce its employees raised over $17,000 for two local non-profits during 2025. $14,000 was raised in support of the UMass Cancer Center via participation in the UMass Cancer Walk, and $3,100 was raised for the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts through Will Bike 4 Food.
UMassFive employees, along with their family and friends, joined together as Team UMassFive at the UMass Cancer Walk—a tradition spanning more than 25 years. These efforts support cancer research and clinical trials at UMass Cancer Center. Fundraising activities included raffle baskets, candy sales, and outreach to corporate partners. Including this year’s contributions, Team UMassFive has raised over $220,000 for the UMass Cancer Center through the UMass Cancer Walk.
Since 2020, UMassFive employees have also participated in Will Bike 4 Food, a major fundraising event for the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts. In 2025, Team UMassFive cyclists pedaled hundreds of miles to raise $3,100, helping provide thousands of meals to neighbors in need. Members looking to support the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts can now donate directly within UMassFive’s enhanced digital banking platform using the Transfers functionality. This new feature has already generated $1,800 in donations in just the first three weeks, making it easier than ever for members to give back to their community.
“Our employees and members understand that, together, we can make a significant impact on the local causes that matter most,” said Cait Murray, Community Outreach Manager at UMassFive. “We’re thrilled to see the generosity of our community and excited to offer new ways to make giving simple and impactful.”
