Merrimack County Savings Bank (The Merrimack) is hosting a sock drive throughout the month of October in partnership with #NHBanksGiveBack, a volunteer celebration organized by the NH Bankers Association. Socks for men, women and children are always in demand – but are the least donated item for those in need.
“Socks are an everyday essential and an invaluable necessity to those without permanent housing,” said Linda Lorden, President of The Merrimack. “A new pair of socks can make all the difference but we can’t do it without the generosity of the community.”
Donations will be distributed to local non-profits including:
- Concord Coalition to End Homelessness
- Families in Transition in Manchester
- Nashua Soup Kitchen and Shelter
- The Upper Room in Derry
- Waypoint in Manchester
- White Birch Center in Henniker
To help make a difference locally, drop off new socks at any of The Merrimack’s nine locations.
