GSL Savings Bank Proudly Co-Sponsors Guttenberg's National Night Out
For more than a century, GSL Savings Bank has been proud to support the community we call home. Continuing that tradition, GSL was honored to once again co-sponsor the Town of Guttenberg's annual National Night Out, held on Tuesday, August 4, 2026, at the Bank's Madison Street parking lot.
The event brought together hundreds of residents, local businesses, community organizations, and public safety officials for an evening dedicated to strengthening the relationship between law enforcement and the community in a fun, family-friendly atmosphere. Guests enjoyed children's activities, music, games, food, giveaways, and opportunities to connect with neighbors and local organizations. As the longtime host of this annual event, GSL Savings Bank was pleased to provide its facility and partner with the Town of Guttenberg in helping make the evening another tremendous success. Since opening its doors in 1907, GSL has remained committed to investing in the communities it serves—not only by providing trusted financial services, but also by supporting local organizations, civic events, schools, and charitable initiatives that strengthen our neighborhoods.
We extend our sincere appreciation to Mayor Wayne Zitt, the Guttenberg Town Council, the Guttenberg Police Department, the Guttenberg Fire Department, the many volunteers, community organizations, vendors, and all those whose hard work and dedication made this year's National Night Out such a memorable success. Their commitment to bringing the community together is truly appreciated. We are also especially proud of our GSL employees who volunteered their time and enthusiastically represented the Bank throughout the evening, helping to make the event welcoming and enjoyable for everyone in attendance.
At GSL Savings Bank, we believe community banking is about more than financial services—it's about being an active partner in the communities we serve. We are proud of our long history of supporting the residents of Guttenberg and look forward to continuing that tradition for generations to come.
Message from the President
Since 1907, GSL Savings Bank has proudly served the families and businesses of Hudson and Bergen Counties. For more than a century, we have remained committed to being a true community bank—one that values relationships, invests locally, and supports the neighborhoods where we live and work.
Today, we are pleased to share that GSL Savings Bank has entered into an agreement to merge with Bogota Savings Bank. This partnership represents an exciting opportunity to build upon our shared commitment to community banking while enhancing our ability to serve customers throughout northern New Jersey. We believe the combined organization will be well-positioned to provide expanded resources, continued financial strength, and the personalized service our customers have come to expect.
Throughout this process, our focus remains on you—our customers. Generations of families have trusted GSL because of our commitment to personal service, local decision-making, and community involvement. Those values have guided us for more than 100 years and will continue to do so as we move forward.
As a community-minded bank, we remain proud to support local organizations, businesses, and initiatives that strengthen the communities we serve. While this announcement marks an important milestone in our history, our mission remains unchanged: to help our customers achieve their financial goals while providing the personal attention and trusted service they deserve.
Thank you for your continued trust and confidence. We look forward to serving you, your family, and our community as we begin this exciting new chapter.
