This holiday season, WESTconsin Credit Union offices will again decorate trees in their lobbies with donated mittens, gloves, hats and scarfs as part of The Mitten Tree campaign. The credit union has offices in Prescott and Spring Valley in this area.

The goal of the campaign is to provide cold weather-wear accessories to those in need as the area heads into the winter season’s sub-zero temperatures. All of the items collected will be distributed locally prior to the holidays.

The project runs through Saturday, Dec. 17. Those who have items to donate may do so by dropping them off at any WESTconsin location during regular office hours. Acceptable items include new mittens, gloves, hats, scarfs and earmuffs; please no previously used ones. They can be handmade or store purchased, and suitable for all age groups—children to adults.

When donated, the items will be proudly displayed on The Mitten Tree.
