Giving tree at ONB helps 36 kids!

Customers take an ornament from the tree and return it with gifts for children.

A total of 36 local children will receive gifts that they otherwise may not have gotten this Christmas, thanks to the generosity of customers of Old National Bank. This annual tradition has continued for 13 years, starting when the bank was part of United Bank & Trust. All gifts are given anonymously through the Manchester Family Service family adoption program.

Dawn Salkauskas, Customer Service representative at the bank, says simply, “Old National Bank Customers Rock!!” Thanks to all for sharing the joy of the season with those who are not as fortunate.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
