The Manitowoc Salvation Army held its Battle of the Financials competition yesterday, but the week before, a similar fundraising effort was held in Sheboygan.
Nine banks and credit unions posted employees outside of Sheboygan area businesses to collect money for the local organization, but HAS Bank collected the most, with $2,158.
Kohler Credit Union collected $1,664, UnitedOne Credit Union gathered $1,114, and Johnson Financial Group rounded out the top four garnering $1,056.
In total, $8,332 was collected for the Salvation Army branch in Sheboygan, with that money going toward helping those struggling with the ongoing impacts of the COVID pandemic, inflation, and job loss.
