Additional ornaments added to Giving Tree

Sterling Bank staff members are encouraging local community members to adopt ornaments from the Giving Tree at the local bank branch to help families in need this holiday season. During the past week, the branch received multiple new families and the tree is nearly full again.

Tags on the Giving Tree are limited to children ages newborn to 18 years of age, senior citizens ages 65 and over, and all recipients live with the Ritzville, Lind, Washtucna and Benge communities.

Ornaments can be selected from the tree during regular business hours at Sterling Bank. The bank is located at 108 East First Avenue in Ritzville.
