Fairfield County Bank’s 17 branch office locations will be collecting toys for local Toys for Tots campaigns from now until mid-December.
Since 1947, The Marine Corp and Toys for Tots have been making a difference in the lives of families across the country. Last year, the Marines Toys for Tots program collected and distributed 19 million toys to 7.3 million less-fortunate children, allowing them to experience the joy of Christmas and receive a message of hope that otherwise would not have been there. This community action program spanned 800 communities over all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.
“Toys for Tots provides hope around the holidays to children in communities across the country, including Fairfield County. We are thrilled to continue to support such an incredible organization,” said Andrea Coreau, Fairfield County Bank’s Senior Vice President of Retail Banking.
Anyone that would like to donate a new or homemade, unwrapped toy can stop in at a local Fairfield County Bank branch.
