This year’s drive marks the 12th consecutive collaboration between the city and the bank to solicit holiday gift donations for local families in need.
Local residents, businesses, groups, and organizations are encouraged to donate unwrapped gifts for children between the ages of newborn to 10, including age-appropriate DVDs, games, sporting goods, and toys. Gift certificates from local merchants are also encouraged to further support the community.
Donations will be accepted from November 18 – December 16 at any one of TVB’s branch locations, including Auburndale, Newton Centre, Newton Highlands, Newtonville, Nonantum, Waban, and West Newton.
Susan Paley, TVB vice president and community relations officer, and Pamela Weissman, the city’s director of social services, are managing the drive.
“As a bank dedicated to the community, The Village Bank is proud to collaborate with the city of Newton to continue this tradition of enriching the holiday season for more than 200 eligible families,” said Joseph De Vito, president and CEO of The Village Bank. “Employees at all levels of our organization look forward to taking part either by providing donations or helping distribute gifts to local families in time for their holiday celebrations.”
