FRANKLIN — Sussex Bank made the holidays special for its neighbors by collecting food, toys and books for those in the community who are less fortunate.

“We would like to thank everyone who contributed and helped make our program a success,” said Anthony Labozzetta, president and chief executive officer of Sussex Bank.

From Nov. 29 through Dec. 20, Sussex Bank’s nine branches and Tri-State Insurance Agency, served as a drop-off site for the following organizations: United Way of Northern New Jersey, local Vernon Churches, Toys for Tots, Sparta Ecumenical Council Food Pantry, St. Joseph Church, Harvest House & Sussex Help Center, Birth Haven and the Salvation Army.

The collection resulted in more 500 collected items, which made the holidays brighter for many children, adults and families.
