Merchants National Bank recently made a $1,000 donation to the Highland County Homeless Shelter’s annual capital campaign.
The donation will assist the shelter in providing clients with shelter, food and utilities.
“On behalf of the Highland County Homeless Shelter, I would like to thank Merchants National Bank,” HCHS Director Greg Hawkins said.
The mission of the Highland County Homeless Shelter is to provide safe, temporary housing for homeless individuals and families and to aid those that are homeless with the resources and referrals that will help them obtain and maintain permanent housing. Community support from local businesses like Merchants National Bank is imperative to the success of the Highland County Homeless Shelter.
