Peapack-Gladstone Bank Brings Holiday Cheer

Peapack-Gladstone Bank employees provided hands-on support in sorting gift donations for Somerset County residents through the United Way.

Christmas is the season of giving. That is why Peapack-Gladstone Bank has once again joined up with the United Way of Northern New Jersey 2014 Gifts of the Season holiday drive where donated items are presented to local needy families. For many who cannot afford to purchase presents for their children or even those who do not have families, this may be the only gift they will receive this holiday season.

Through the generosity of Peapack-Gladstone Bank employees, clients and local residents, a vast assortment of toys, clothing and gift certificates were recently collected at the Bank’s locations. Bank employees also rolled up their sleeves to provide hands-on support at the United Way consolidation warehouse in sorting and packing thousands of donations for the less fortunate, right in our own communities.

Throughout the years, the United Way of Northern New Jersey Gifts of the Season has brought smiles to the faces of countless Somerset County residents. The Bank thanks everyone who contributed for their generosity and looks forward to continuing its outreach to assist those in need in the New Year.
