Tis the season to be jolly and spread the joy of giving to others! There are several “Angel” trees in Italy and Milford with many “Angels” waiting to be adopted.

Citizen’s National Bank and Independent Bank in Italy have “Angel” trees that sponsor children under the Child Protective Services. Milford Police department has an “Angel” tree that is dedicated to children in Milford and surrounding towns. Police chief Phoenix of Milford said, “We had more ‘Angels’ than usual this year and we have about 40 more that need to be adopted for Christmas.” If you would like to just make a donation for the Milford “Angels” you can bring your donations to Milford City Hall or Milford Police department and gifts will be purchased for “Angels” left on the tree.

Both trees at the Italy banks are over flowing with “Angels" that need to be adopted for Christmas.

You can come anytime during regular banking hours to adopt an “Angel”.
