Join Merrimack County Savings Bank (The Merrimack) in giving back this holiday season by donating to its Annual Mitten Tree Drive. Now through the end of the year, The Merrimack will be collecting new handmade or store-bought mittens, hats and scarves.

โ€œWinters in New Hampshire can be rough, especially for our neighbors in need,โ€ said Linda Lorden, president of The Merrimack. โ€œWhen you make a donation to our Mitten Tree Drive, youโ€™re not only providing warmth โ€“ youโ€™re supporting local food pantries.โ€

For every item collected, The Merrimack will donate $2.00 to be distributed among the following organizations:

  • Bow Foodย Pantry
  • Friends of Forgotten Children (Concord)
  • Henniker Food Pantry
  • Hopkinton Foodย Pantry
  • Hooksett Foodย Pantry
  • Nashua Soup Kitchen andย Shelter
  • Shepardโ€™s Pantry (Windham)
  • Twin Rivers Food Pantry (Franklin)

Donations can be dropped off at any of The Merrimackโ€™s nine locations. For a complete list of The Merrimackโ€™s hours and locations, visit themerrimack.com/locations.
