From November 4th through December 14th, the Partners Bank office in Sanford and Buxton collected Winter Coats for All! Coats, mittens, gloves, hats, scarves, and other winter clothes and accessories for adults and children were accepted. All the clothing was donated to the Salvation Army in Sanford.

The address for the Partners Bank in Sanford is 900 Main Street, and the address for the Buxton location is 254 Long Plains Road. Both locations had a donation table in the lobby for anyone to drop off new or gently used winter clothing.

Winter Coats for All was led by Crystal Callahan, Receptionist at the Partners Bank main office who is known for her cheerful greeting in person and over the phone. Winter Coats for All’s mission is to help those in the community who could use a warm reminder that they are not alone.

In 2023, a sum of 251 winter clothing and accessories was collected for the Salvation Army. This year, Partners Bank nearly quadrupled that number – the total winter clothing and accessories collected was 957! For a complete tally of donated items, see the table below.

The Salvation Army in Sanford is a place of worship, a food pantry, and a valuable resource for people in need in our community. They are located at 871 Main Street, Sanford, ME, and their phone number is (207) 324-3134.
