​Annual Mitten Tree Drive Kicks off at the Merrimack

With cold weather moving in and the holidays approaching, Merrimack County Savings Bank (the Merrimack) is collecting cold weather essentials for their annual Mitten Tree drive. New handmade or store-bought mittens, hats, gloves and scarves can be dropped off at Merrimack branch locations. Nonprofits in need of these items should contact the Bank office closest to them. A complete list of offices and hours are available at themerrimack.com. 

“The Mitten Tree is a simple way for community members to get in the spirit of the holidays by helping those in need of food and warm clothing,” said Linda Lorden, President of the Merrimack. “We look forward to contributing to food pantries and organizations throughout in Concord, Bow, Contoocook, Hooksett, Nashua and beyond.” 

A donation of $2 for every item collected through December 31 will be evenly divided and awarded to:

• The Friendly Kitchen, Concord, NH. Providing meals for the hungry in a warm and caring, non-discriminating environment. For more information, go to thefriendlykitchen.org. 

• Franklin Twin Rivers Interfaith Food Pantry, Franklin, NH. Providing food to Franklin, Tilton, Northfield, Hill, Andover, and Salisbury. They are located at 2 Central St. in Franklin and can be reached at 603.934.2662.

• Hopkinton Food Pantry, Hopkinton, NH. Assists local households in Hopkinton and Contoocook with nonperishable food items as well as special food allotments during the holidays. For more information, visit hopkintonfoodpantry.org.

• The Hooksett Community Food Pantry, Hooksett, NH. A community project of the Hooksett Kiwanis Foundation, helping those of the local community who are hungry by providing food items. For more information, visit hooksettkiwanis.org/community-food-pantry.

• The Nashua Soup Kitchen & Shelter, Nashua, NH. Provides shelter and food to those in need within the Greater Nashua community.

Founded in 1867, the Merrimack has served the people, businesses, non-profits and municipalities in central and southern New Hampshire for over 150 years. In 2021, the Merrimack was recognized as “best bank” by both the Union Leader voters, and for the 11th year in a row by the Capital Area People’s Preferences. Merrimack County Savings Bank is a mutual savings bank that benefits local depositors, borrowers, and surrounding communities instead of stockholders on Wall Street.
