    Equivalent of More Than 4.2 tons of Peanut Butter Collected

    WESTERLY, R.I., April 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Washington Trust ("the Bank") today announced their 25th Annual Peanut Butter Drive collected 4,710 jars of peanut butter, and more than $6,100 in monetary donations, to benefit partner food banks and hunger relief agencies throughout the Bank's footprint - a 68% increase in donations from last year.

    Washington Trust's 25th annual Peanut Butter Drive resulted in more than 4,700 jars of peanut butter collected and $6,143 raised to support local food banks and hunger relief agencies throughout RI, MA, and CT.

    In 2001, the Peanut Butter Drive was created as a meaningful way to restock food pantry shelves following the holiday season, providing a healthy, family-friendly staple loved by people of all ages. Throughout its 25-year history, the annual drive has collected more than 166 tons of peanut butter—enough to make more than 5.2 million sandwiches for neighbors in need.

    "For 225 years, Washington Trust has been committed to helping our local communities thrive, and we remain committed to supporting organizations that provide hunger relief to those facing food insecurity, especially now, when the need is greater than ever," said Edward O. "Ned" Handy III, Washington Trust Chairman & CEO. "We are incredibly grateful for the continued support from our local businesses, schools, community groups, and of course, our loyal customers, who made this year's milestone Peanut Butter Drive such a resounding success."

    Andrew Schiff, CEO at the Rhode Island Community Food Bank, emphasized the impact of community food drives and awareness campaigns such as this one: "Community initiatives like Washington Trust's Annual Peanut Butter Drive are critical in helping us address the need for food assistance in Rhode Island. For the past 25 years, this drive has continued to grow and has been a boon to our efforts to feed Rhode Islanders in need every day. We are deeply grateful for the longstanding partnership with the Bank, and generosity from our community."

    The collected peanut butter and funds raised will directly support local food banks and other hunger relief programs, ensuring that families and individuals facing hunger have access to nutritious food. Food bank partners include the Rhode Island Community Food Bank (Providence, RI), Connecticut Foodshare (Wallingford, CT), and the Greater Boston Food Bank (Boston, MA).
