WESTFIELD BANK PARTNERS WITH MARINE TOYS FOR TOTS FOUNDATION TO HOST TOY DRIVE

Westfield, MA— Westfield Bank is inviting its customers and community members across Western Massachusetts and Northern Connecticut to help economically disadvantaged children this holiday season. Westfield Bank has partnered with the Western Massachusetts Campaign of the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation to collect toys in all the bank’s Massachusetts branches. Additionally, all Connecticut branches will be donating to local charitable organizations.

Donations boxes have been placed in all branches, and donations will be accepted through Monday, December 13. All toys donated should be unused, unwrapped, and in their original packaging. Toys that look like realistic weapons and toys that contain food will not be accepted. All toys will be collected and distributed to communities throughout Western Massachusetts and Northern Connecticut in time for the holidays.

“After a successful “Thanks for Giving” food drive, Westfield Bank is proud to further our mission of charitable giving,” said James C. Hagan, President and CEO of Westfield Bank. “We are happy to partner with the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation and other charitable organizations to help give local children extra joy this holiday season.”
