CNB helps pets

PUTNAM — Matthew S. Sosik, president and CEO of CNB, a division of bankESB, announced the bank has contributed cash and needed items to the NECCOG Pet Shelter. 

All the Connecticut branches, along with the Massachusetts branches of bankESB, had a collection to support the local animal shelters.

The Connecticut branches collected $666 in cash and 348 items for the NECCOG Pet Shelter.  The donations were collected from customers and staff during the month of May. There were collection boxes in each branch’s lobby.

Some of the items collected were gently used blankets, towels and other gently used pet supplies (beds, toys, crates, etc.). They also collected new toys, pet food and gift cards.

Donations and support from the community are what make it possible for these facilities to help animals, said Sosik.
