Pentucket Bank Charitable Foundation Contributes $3,000 to Anchor of Hope Diaper Bank

The Pentucket Bank Charitable Foundation has donated $3,000 to the Anchor of Hope Diaper Bank (AOH), an organization dedicated to supporting families in need by providing essential diapers free of charge. This contribution will help AOH continue its vital work of alleviating financial strain on local families. By addressing a critical gap – diapers and wipes are not covered by government assistance programs such as WIC or SNAP – AOH ensures that families can meet their children’s basic needs and dignity.

Run entirely by volunteers out of Haverhill, MA, AOH collaborates with other local nonprofits to maximize its impact. Each year, the organization serves around 150 children in the Haverhill area and distributes tens of thousands of diapers, offering a lifeline to families facing economic hardship.

In commenting on the donation, Pentucket Bank President and CEO Steve Jaskelevicus said, “In times of need, it is our collective responsibility to support those who are working tirelessly to care for people in our communities. We are honored to contribute to the important work of the Anchor of Hope Diaper Bank.”
