Norwich, CT Monday, November 25, 2019

For 150 years, Dime Bank has made good on its founders’ promise to always give back to the community; earlier this month, the Bank took its commitment to a new level with the donation of 150 turkeys to the 97.7 WCTY Drive to End Hunger, benefitting the Thames Valley Council for Community Action & Gemma Moran Labor Food Bank.


The drive, which is held annually at the Big Y at 224 Salem Turnpike, collects food to be donated to the Gemma E. Moran Labor Food Bank, which distributes the food to various pantries in the area.


“Since our inception, our commitment to the community has always gone far beyond banking,” said Nick Caplanson, Dime’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “At Dime, we traditionally refer to the holidays as the ‘The Season of Giving’ and we are thankful for the opportunity to brighten the Thanksgiving holiday for a number of families in our community this season.”
