TowneBank Supports Salvation Army With Angel Tree Donations

Sign up here for our free newsletter that tells you about the newest stories, three mornings each week.

WILLIAMSBURG—For ten years, Lynn Joseph has been coordinating TowneBank’s Williamsburg efforts to ensure local families aren’t forgotten over the holidays through the Angel Tree program. Team members from Williamsburg’s two branches participate, with donations going to the Salvation Army of Greater Williamsburg.

“We’ve been doing this a long time now, so we ask for brothers and sisters instead of just random tags,” said Joseph. “Quite often, we’ll get a group of families and each one of our team members picks a tag, whether it be a brother, a sister, a baby. We tend to keep it within the family so we can be consistent in what they might need. The donations have dwindled a little over the years, but the gifts have gotten larger with bikes, doll houses, and things like that.”

The New Local News Model

On July 1, we started a new way to pay for news. Yes, we want you to subscribe, but we know nobody subscribes to every site they visit just because there's a paywall.

So if you don't want to subscribe (even at the low price of $39.99 for a year), you can pay for access to individual articles. Or just buy a 24-hour pass, as if you were buying a single copy of a newspaper. We use a new payment service called Transact, which lets you pay for individual articles in as little as three seconds. And you will get $3 in credit when you sign up (just an email address, no credit card required), which will let you pay for at least 20 articles.

This is new for everyone, so we're going to ease you into this. Initially, there won't be many articles that you have to pay for. Short ones will always be free. And even the longer stories will let you read the first half or so for free. We'd love to hear what you think, so send us a note at feedback@peninsulachronicle.com.
