FNCB projects brighten holidays for local families

FNCB Bank, locally based since 1910, recently held a Toys for Tots drive that brought in hundreds of donated toys for children in Northeast Pennsylvania. The drive was conducted in all 16 community offices as well as FNCB’s Corporate Centers in Dunmore. Midge MacArthur, FNCB Dunmore Community Office Manager, spearheaded the project. The support of Toys for Tots is part of FNCB’s larger Community Caring initiative. As a true, local community bank, FNCB Bank is making a difference through volunteerism, donations and outreach programs.

Toys for Tots donations accepted until December 8th

The Lackawanna County Commissioners join with the Marines to promote the 2023 Toys for Tots program, which annually supports the less fortunate children in our community at Christmas.  Established in 1991, the Toys for Tots Foundation was created by the Marine Corps to help less fortunate children throughout the United States experience the joy of Christmas.  The last day to donate a new unwrapped toy will be Friday, December 8.
