Bank of New Hampshire Donates to Twenty Food Pantries Across the State

From October 12th through November 12th, each Bank of New Hampshire office participated in the annual Banking on Kindness Funds for Food Drive, which in total raised $15,151.43 for twenty different food pantries across the state of New Hampshire.

Thanks to generous Bank of New Hampshire customers, the Bank collected $10,122.43 in monetary donations at our offices. Furthermore, with Bank of New Hampshire’s commitment to match donations up to $250.00 per office, the Bank’s match was $5,029.00 resulting in total donations of $15,151.43.

Each Bank of New Hampshire office had the opportunity to choose a local food pantry in their community to support, and were able to deliver the funds they raised in their office, along with the Bank’s match, to that local food pantry during the week of Thanksgiving. These monetary donations allow the local food pantries to purchase food to stock their shelves during a season when many are experiencing an increased struggle with food insecurity.

“Our customers have once again blown us away with their generous donations to our Funds for Food Drive,” said Chris Logan, President and CEO for Bank of New Hampshire. “Together, we were able to make record breaking donations to our local food pantries, and I am confident that those donations are directly impacting the lives of individuals across our state who are bearing the weight of food insecurity this holiday season.”

Bank of New Hampshire is proud of the impact of our Funds for Food Drive as we aspire to remain an independent mutual financial institution, delivering innovative solutions and exceptional service, while assisting our employees, customers and communities to build brighter futures.
