    Be an Angel: Liberty Bank hosting annual drive for Connecticut Veterans

    Liberty Bank is teaming up with Save-A-Suit, a nonprofit helping veterans transition back to civilian life and achieve job security.

    Through Friday, July 15, the bank is collecting professional clothing for men and women, basically anything veterans can wear to a job interview and at work. Following the drive, Save-A-Suit staff and volunteers will sort the donations and distribute clothing at a quarterly event where veterans are also provided with wellness resources.

    All Liberty Bank branches are currently accepting donations as drop-off sites for Save-A-Suit. Since inception in 2010, the nonprofit has helped ‘suit up’ over 5,000 veterans.

    Dirty, damaged or ripped items will not be distributed to veterans. Monetary donations for Save-A-Suit are also being accepted. For locations and branch hours, go to www.liberty-bank.com, and learn more about Save-A-Suit at saveasuit.org.

    Be an Angel is a regular feature. To submit email times@theday.com.
