One area bank is helping students in need by collecting school supplies for the upcoming school year. People’s Bank and Trust in Morrisonville is having its annual “Fill The Bus” school supply drive to raise money and supplies for Morrisonville students in need.

Larry Boston is a Vice President of Business Banking at People’s Bank and Trust. He says each student deserves to have the school supplies they need on their first day of school.

Boston says it’s important for the bank to help out in the community however it can.

The “Fill The Bus” campaign will run at People’s Bank and Trust until August 14th. Boston says they will start distributing items the next day.
