Service Credit Union is once again helping Granite Staters in need with its “Stay Warm” program.
 
PORTSMOUTH—Every fall, the credit union allows N.H. nonprofits to request up to 300 “Stay Warm” bags, each filled with a blanket, hat, scarf and gloves to distribute to any individuals who may need them. Now in its fifth year, Service Credit Union has raised the total amount of available bags to 7,000 to help fill the needs of its community partners. Currently, just under 1,000 bags remain to be claimed by nonprofits.
 
“Unfortunately, we are seeing a greater need than ever from our community partners for items such as winter gear, especially for school-aged children. We are proud to support our local nonprofits with these needed items so they can continue the great work they do,” said Sean Hladick, community relations manager at Service Credit Union.
 
Bag pickup locations will be offered in Manchester on Nov. 13, Portsmouth on Nov. 14 and Rochester on Nov. 14.
