Ashley Harrison and Lucas Stangl are Co-Chairs for Merchants Bank’s 2024 10 Days of Giving food drive running December 1-10. In its 36th year, the drive benefits food shelf programs operated by Winona Volunteer Services (WVS). Last year’s campaign raised 261,127 pounds of food for WVS, culminating in more than four million pounds of food donated since the drive began in 1989.
“I’m excited about the new special events we added this year,” said Harrison, “there are so many fun ways for community members of all ages to help those in need this holiday season.”
Two of these new special events aimed at raising donations this year take place at the Parlour Room on Saturday, December 7, Santa's Workshop for children during the day and an Ugly Sweater Soirée for adults at night. Community members can also look forward to the annual Fish Fry Dinner on Friday, December 6 and Apps & Taps with celebrity bartenders at Port 507 on Sunday, December 8.

Winona County still has many community members facing hardship who need assistance. So far, in 2024 Winona Volunteer Services has distributed 440,471 pounds of food and spent $100,196.63 in food purchases, helping more than 14,500 individuals.
“I’ve been a part of 10 Days of Giving for years at the Bank,” said new co-chair, Stangl. “The generosity of the Winona area community is what enables us to make such a big impact in the lives of our friends and neighbors.”
Monetary donations made out to 10 Days of Giving can be mailed or dropped off at Merchants Bank, 102 E. 3rd Street, Winona, MN 55987. Donations can also be made online at the WVS website: www.winonavs.org. Indicate 10 Days of Giving after entering your name.
The 10 Days of Giving food drive is an annual community collaboration between Merchants Bank and WVS to make sure no one in Winona County goes hungry each winter. Since 1989, the drive has collected more than four million pounds of food helping thousands of people. In addition to the Winona drive, other Merchants locations partner with their local food shelf in a similar effort. Learn more at www.merchantsbank.com/10daysofgiving.
