Canandaigua National Bank partners with Hillside Special Santas


In an effort to extend to the community the opportunity to help youth and families build better futures this holiday season, Hillside Special Santas announces that it is partnering with Canandaigua National Bank and Trust for a fifth consecutive year.

The bank’s 18 branches will display a total of 1,500 Hillside Special Santas gift tags, each one describing a specific child’s wish, this year on holiday trees in their lobbies. Beginning November 19, visitors to any of the Canandaigua National Bank and Trust branches are asked to remove a tag, take it home, and purchase a corresponding gift. Unwrapped gifts should be returned by December 17 to any of the CNB branches throughout Monroe and Ontario counties or to Hillside Family of Agencies.

“The partnership with Canandaigua National Bank and Trust is truly a gift,” says Sally Bohne, Hillside Special Santas manager. “Through the simple act of making Hillside Special Santas gift tags available at the bank’s many community branches, CNB demonstrates its dedication to youth and families.”

Last year alone, Canandaigua National Bank and Trust helped to collect more than 1,400 gifts for Hillside Special Santas.
