First Independent Bank Collecting Coats for Hot August Nights Foundation Annual Coat Drive
First Independent Bank, including its branch in Carson City, is working to make sure kids in Northern Nevada in need of warm coats this winter, will get them. The bank branch is offering an easy way for the public to donate a new or gently used coat for those who need them.
First Independent Bank has teamed up with the Hot August Nights Foundation, a nonprofit organization helping children in need or at-risk, to collect coats during the Foundation’s Annual Coat Drive. All coats collected during the drive will be given to the Boys & Girls Club of Truckee Meadows which will distribute to those families in need.
From now through Nov. 6, 2015, the public can simply drop off a coat at the Carson City branch at 1818 East College Parkway, or any of the First Independent Bank Branches in Reno, Sparks or Fallon between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.
On Saturday, November 7, 2015, the Hot August Nights Foundation will hold it’s annual drive up coat drive. Between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., the public can stop by the A&W location in Reno (900 East Plumb Lane) or in Sparks (1131 Baring Boulevard) to drop off coats.
“This is a great opportunity to help support our community, and allow our customers the option to donate as well,” said Bob Francl, First Independent Bank Executive Vice President. “The Hot August Nights Foundation’s Annual Coat Drive is a worthwhile project that helps ensure families who are truly in need have good, warm coats to wear this winter.”
