It’s hard to believe the new school year is right around the corner, but CNB Bank and Trust is looking to help some students be ready for the new year. The Taylorville CNB location is participating in the bank’s annual School Supply Drive, and school supply and monetary donations raised in Taylorville will go towards the CEFS Head Start program.

Meagan Marron is the Lead Teller and Facility Coordinator at the CNB Taylorville branch. She says because the items are going to CEFS Head Start, the branch is looking for items geared to younger kids.

Marron says they chose CEFS Head Start because they are required to bring in donations throughout the year.

Marron says monetary donations will be accepted as well. Donations can be brought to the CNB Bank and Trust in Taylorville or monetary donations can be made at their website, which you can visit by clicking here. Marron says the bank will match donations made online. The drive runs until August 11.
