All store-bought and handmade items dropped off between November 19, 2018 and January 11, 2019 will be donated to MPS students, ensuring they stay safe and warm as temperatures drop during the fall and winter months.

“During the past three years, our customers and team members have given generously to the Mitten Tree Drive and we expect the same this year,” said Lou Campos, director of community banking at TCF Bank. “As you are shopping for the holidays, purchase an extra hat, scarf or a pair of gloves or mittens and drop them off at a TCF Bank branch. It’s a simple act and it is a great way to make a difference in our community.”

“As we continue to focus our efforts on attendance, donations of hats, scarves, gloves and mittens will help to keep our children warm and well this winter,” said Kellie Sigh, director of the Department of Strategic Partnerships and Customer Service at Milwaukee Public Schools. “Our need continues to be great and we appreciate the support of TCF Bank and the public as we strive toward our goal of 4,000 winter items.”
