Rollstone Bank & Trust dona $15,000 para ampliar la oferta de vivienda para veteranos

Rollstone-Bank-&-Trust-Donates-$15,000-To-Expand-Housing-For-VeteransRollstone Bank & Trust, through its Charitable Foundation, has pledged $15,000 to the Montachusett Veterans Outreach Center (MVOC) in Gardner, a nonprofit organization that supports military veterans and their families in need of services. The donation will help support MVOC’s housing expansion project in Winchendon, which will provide 44 new apartments for veterans.

“RBT has a long history of supporting organizations who fight against housing insecurity in our area,” said Martin F. Connors, Jr., President & CEO of Rollstone Bank & Trust. “Those who served our country should never have to worry about having a roof over their heads. Rollstone is proud to help MVOC in their efforts to improve the lives of our nation’s heroes.”

MVOC helps over 700 veterans annually. In addition to housing, services include mental health support, veterans benefits, food and clothing assistance, and more.

“MVOC is grateful for the strong relationship we have with Rollstone Bank, who has been a supporter of our efforts for many years,” said Stephanie Marchetti, Executive Director of MVOC. “This donation will help ensure that our housing expansion project gets pushed over the finish line- that we’ll be able to not just construct the property, but furnish apartments for veterans who may come with nothing.”
